    Default downswings

    After how much of a downswing should I consider that I am no longer just running bad, but playing bad. I have had success on the 15+1s on stars for quite some time, now I have come back to them, after being up like 1k, in about 5 days, I have had a downswings of about 500, after about 5 days. I play 20 at a time, and play about 3 sessions a day. On sharkscope.com, It says I have played over 3000, and have a 10% roi.

    20 at the same time? Or 20 in the same session.

    If it's 20 at the same time, why are you doing that if you question your SnG ability?

    3k SNGs with 10% ROI is fine
    u should consider playing less tables and paying more attention.

    there is no set figure. All you need to do is run thru ur HH's and see whether you're still getting in with the best of it? Are you suddenly taking on unnecessary coin-flips or forcing TPTK when really you know/sense/it's obvious you're beat? Are you refusing to believe that the fishies have the hand they are blatantly annoucing they have just because you don't believe that they would call off that much of a bet on a gutshot, underpair etc?

    maybe as a suggestion, like vq says, is work on concentrating harder at slightly fewer tables
