Man do those runs suck.

Hopefully tomorrow you'll run in the opposite direction for +200 BB!
If I had a hammer
I'd drop in the morning
I'd drop in the evening..

yeah, those are never fun. Always surprises you how fast the swings can come too. I had my first -100 BB swing since moving up past 1/2 a little over a month ago and then about a week and a half ago I had a -200 BB swing where AK and AKs were both HUGE losers for me. Over the past week, I'm up over 300 BB though, so the swings definately come in both directions(though that's not really a swing, since I played a LOT of hands over that week)

ironically i purposely posted there so they would berate me and get me back on track.

so apparently it's not a downswing until you hit -280BB....hmmm
