My last 32k hands made me a losing player
These are the stats of my last 4 months. A few days back after having another bad session, I merged all the PT databases I have. The results were quite astonishing to me; overall I am a losing player according in my database. Because my first few months of playing and some small sites are not in there, I am more or less a break even player online.
4 months before I was a winning 25NL and 50NL player for about 10 months, and taking some shots at 100NL. After quiting the shots I started loosing at 50NL and dropped down to 25NL to build on my confidende and to test myself to get a decent winrate. (I have posted about that before.)
To say I hit a downswing seems an understatement. I lost a shocking 8,5 BI at 50NL and 11BI's at 25NL over 32k hands. (for example my KK's have seen AA's 11 times, my AA's have seen KK's 2 times). I downloaded PokerEV and the graphs show I have had a downswing as well...I don't understand the graphs very well though and they are only from about 18k PP hands.
But I don't think I can assign it all to the downswing, or at least wonder if I can. It's not like these stakes are almost unbeatable so even with some bad card runs it should be able to be beaten.
My confidence has dropped a lot the last months and so has my enjoyment. I feel like I have to get a total different approach to the game, but tbh I just don't know.
I don't know whether to keep playing my game at these stakes, drop down to 5NL or something and play a totally different game, move up to hit an upswing and get paid, or something else. Due to effective bonuswhoring in the past my bankroll is still solid for 50NL, but it isn't inexhaustible and my enjoyment isn't either.
I am mostly looking for advice on my stats/playing style and how big my downswing really is compared to my losses.
