What is the worst you have run?

WOW!
Is there even a roll left over?

At 5 buy-ins I'd have to turn the comp off and do some serious evaluation of my play.
I don't know what to say here, but I certainly hope you drop levels Meloris.

Good luck building it back. It'll be tough but can be done.
Whenever you do get going again, make sure you get that loss out of your head.

I'm reading the numbers in this thread, and I agree:

I just don't think I could habdle dropping that many buy ins. I mean, that's a LOT... I think after about 4-5, I'd HAVE to take a break. I just wouldn't be able to stomach much more... I can certainly see how variance could account for even a 10 buy in downswing (and maybe more), but these numbers approaching 20 - that's a freaking BAD run.

I have no idea what my worst records are... I could probably find out, but I don't think I want to.

Don’t get me wrong. I don’t consider myself a good player. I have a ton to learn and I am actually pretty excited about learning, particularly after this bad run.

maybe with some more distance from it I will have a different take, but after each session I spent a lot of time in review and as far as I can tell, I was playing well for well over half of this run. It seemed like I lost every large pot I was involved with. The stats are incredible. In one week I had four sets hold up on the river. I had three flushes hold up on the river. I don’t remember the number of times I took a full house to the river only to lose to a larger house, but it was definitely more than than the number of times I won with a full house on the river. But most of the time I won really small pots with these hands, and these are the numbers I am remembering off the top of my head, the list goes on and on.

Granted, I know played scared the last couple of days and therefore a lot less optimal that I could (which still probably isn’t that good). But this means I was playing more tight that I should, and maybe respecting bets more than I should. Keep in my that I was playing 1-3 hrs a day for this week. It is a ton for me, but not that much by tp.com standards.

Post some PT stats (especially the main ones). You might get some really good feedback about something you didn't even realize was a problem.
