Beat: Lost 100 buyins in 100k hands. Brag: Won 110 buyins back in 75k hands.
I've never posted in here but this is the wildest variance I've ever encountered so I thought I would post it in BBV so people can see what kind of real swings you can get at this dumb game. I literally could not win a big pot for like 4 months and then I couldn't lose one for 3.
I've played poker for a living since 2007 and my biggest downswing before this was like 40 buyins.
I took a year off of poker to start law school and came back and this happened to me, the graph starts in like Feb of last year and is all 1/2 regular, 1/2 zone, and 2/5. The plan was to just play 1/2 and 2/5 for a bit to make sure I was still a winner and then move back up but as you can see that uhh did not go as planned.
Unfortunately I ran mostly bad at 2/5 in the middle so I am still working on getting back to 0 since I came back (lol)
I think the main brag is keeping mostly sane during all of this to be honest and riding it out, I'm pretty proud of that
