another night, another BI...lost. this is starting to really get to me. i have never lost more than 5 BIs in any downswing in over 2 1/2 yrs of playing 10k hands/month.

and, i've just lost 8 in a week!!!

however, my saving grace is looking at the biggest losing holdings...in order:
KK -$50.25
TT -$41.85
AQo -$39
T9s -$39 (lost 2 big pots w/ combo draws)
QQ -$36
KQs -$19 (another combo draw hand)
77 -$14
AKo -$14
33
KTs
99
KJo -$8.15

this is only over 2800 hands. i am down just under $200 at the 25NL. off 13.74 PTBB/100. so sick, it makes me laugh.

so, we know it will turn around in time, but geez.


heres the pledge. TO PROVE TO YOU GUYS THAT ITS HOW MANY HANDS YOU PLAY, NOTHING ELSE POWERS YOU THROUGH VARIANCE FASTER!!

granted, its virtually impossible for this ALL to be variance. theres some bad play mixed in there, i guarantee you that. but, not as much as one might think to get these numbers...lol.

i will come out of it, but do i want it to take a month? or, 2 weeks?

a lot of people recommend to "take time off." that is not the answer to me, never has been. the only way to handle a cold-streak (so long as you can keep your head on straight) is to POWER THROUGH IT.

i guess it comes from my sales background. its now how good you are, as long as you are fundamentally sound...its how many doors you knock on...period. if you want a better bottom line, work harder/play more hands.
