    Default Running bad



    Dec 11th - now


    I'm playing 50NL at possibly the softest site on the internet.


    What's the worst you've run? Is this kinda variance to be expected? (PokerEV isnt compatible with where I play so I can't post that)


    I seem to be hit by not only situational variance (I'm getting fuck all action with any of my good hands), but by normal drawout variance as well.


    Because the software's shit I can only play like 3-4 tables at once.


    What's your worst run? What did you do to attempt to overcome it? I'm seriously tempted to play like 13/9 for a while.


    ty guys, this is driving me completely batshit

    The more it happens the more numb you get and the easier it gets. 8 buy ins is really nothing though, ive had two 35+ BI downswings and at least to 20+ BI downswings (not including the 35+ ones).

    How is this site you play on soft? Call stationy or spewy? If it's call stationy, you should really just nit it up. It's not a popular playing style, but it works the best on these games where FE basically doesn't exist.

    And ISF wtf??? Were these downswing HU downswings? Or just you experimenting?

    Yeah, iv'e done 30 buyins twice. 20 buyins several times too.

    Oh also, i broke even @ 100NL for around 80k hands.

    So, needless to say i'm playing 100NL with a $5k+ roll
