Hello all

I've been playing 2NL zoom for several days now and I've reached 15K hands played. Problem is I'm losing 20stacks atm..

Those several days, With all the Aces I either got to win the blinds or got cracked (by KK hitting set, random 2 cards hitting 2 pairs etc) All the KK I ended up going up against AA, or lesser pairs hitting set, etc.

Ultimately I've been getting a lot of bad beats with most of my premium hands. As I grinded I've won small pots here and there big pots by completing draws and what not.

And after 15k Hands, it shows me -20stacks :( I know 15k hands is not enough to determine my game but is it possible to go down that much (20stacks) while grinding at 2NL zoom? I'm starting get worried about if I can work myself up again and start winning in the future.

That's all you need to know about RNG in online poker. :D

Well I don't remember anymore in details, but if you win more than 8bb/100 (semi good) losing big in 2nl should be extremely unlikely, like meteorite hitting you. There is rng simulator somewhere in the net. The variance in 2nl is typically very low because you get your money in usually 70% favourite. I would guess (totally guess) the marginal is under 5% (55%) even for the world's most skilled 100nl player.
