[Closed] Down 15buyins BSS from 7500 hands

Id like to post the graphs but i cant work out how to do it.

Anyway, i'll keep it short as i can:

i moved up to 100NL having won $1000 at 50NL after 20,000 hands (sorry, not 8000, misread the graph)

I'm down $1500 in 100NL after 7500 hands. My non-showdown winnings are normally descending slowly but have dived since i moved up.

I played 100NL 6 months ago and was up $1700 for 13k hands.

I've gone bust now and have got to save up to restart my BR.

I've not been experiencing more bad beats than is normal.

Is this a bad downswing or has the level of play at 100NL drastically increased in the last 6 months? What is going on here?!

[ ] Bad downswing
[x] Bad BRM


Nothing increased in the last 6 months. You're saying you're down 15BI ? That seems like kind of a downswing ... and a couple of leaks I bet you'll find if you keep studying (assuming you do study) .

BRM has always been an issue for me. i do try and study my stats for leaks but im not so good at interpreting my data. From what i've taken from my stats, i dont have any major leaks. I'd like to post them but cant work it out.

So, is this a bad downswing then..?

It depends on if its SH or FR.

Did you not think to move down limits? Surley a point comes where you'll think "crap lossing to much money, its starting to affect me, i'd feel better if i played NL50/25 for abit".

It crossed my mind, but one of my biggest weakness as a player is moving down limits and BRM. It's normally the time between going bust and saving up to start off my BR where i decide to move down limits next time i play.

To the guy whose down aload in 10NL. I feel your frustration - except multiplied by 10. Your graph is pretty sick but i dont feel much better.

Think of it this way, if you follow BRM you will never have to pay to play poker again =)

Wow, I've never thought of it that way. I always thought of BRM as something that just slows down your accension through the stakes but you're right. BRM practically ensures you'll never bust out from downswings if you stick to it. Thanks pocketacesjohn, that's helped alot.
