I went on the most frozen streak I have ever hit. I was comfortable multi-tabling full table 2-4 games. Went on the worst downswing ever. That multiplied into scared play. Which led to Tilt. I destroyed aprox 3/4 my roll before I got it all under control. About 1/4 of the roll depletion was the cold streak, the other 2/4 was the change in my play from the cold streak and tilting which led to limits way to high for my roll. The opposite of what you're supposed to do. I have only recently found my game again and am well on my way to rebuilding although I'm once again stuck slumming it at .50-1. Another 100 bets and I'll be back at 1-2. Hope to see DM there Razz

I hate that when that happens. It really sucks to run bad and play bad simultaneously. Been there too often.

Well, welcome back ridic. GL rebuilding. Also, I don't know if I'd really want DM at my table, unless I'm playing way over rolled and feel like learning something. Now if it's a NL table, he's welcome any time. Just as I'm sure he feels the same way about me at a limit table.

Been there, done that. It sucks bigtime. At least you were able to get it together before you lost the rest. Good luck, and good cards.

Welcome Back. It really sucks doesn't it. It's like being disembodied and watching yourself donk away your bankroll. You know you shouldn't be doing what you are doing, and you just can't yell loud enough to make yourself stop. I put myself in the middle of that same 3 ring circus; never mind serenity, God grant me discipline.

I sincerely wish you the best.

Exactly it was like just watching something awful and not being able to stop it.
