I don't play for nearly the same money as you guys. I have had a $100 dollar plunge and a $70 plunge and at the time, they about killed me. I have since, though, gotten my roll back up to $400+ and have avoided the HUGE swings. Started with $20 and doing ok, so far.

My swings havent been that huge yet. I probably don't play near the amount of hands and hours that some do but my biggest swing was 1/4 of my bankroll. Given it wasn't a very big obe yet it still hurt.

Swings can get real frustrating. I think my worst day was $650. It seems like some days nothing hits and then when something does hit well, you always get outdrawn by some junk hand.

It seems to happen on the weekends more often. Perhaps because there are more loose players who see the flop with anything and take it to the river on a draw without the correct odds. If you are running bad this just compounds the whole mess.
