This is for the sit and go grinders. I am rally just wondering what other's skilled down swings look like. For a week now I've been trending down, losing every all in as a huge favorite. I just busted out of two more while I was creating this post. as a 4 to 1 or even better favorite.

I have not broken the trendline and I'm not one of those nuts that thinks "pokerstars is rigged! It's just when you lose over and over you kind of lose confidence in your playing; and yeah, you do start to wonder.

I guess I'm just wondering what can be chalked up simply to variance and looking for a little reassurance. For reference I am playing almost exclusively 6 max turbo sit and go's with $10 and $20 buy in.

So I am going to keep track of all of my all ins that went to the river and see if statistically everything is kosher. Obviously I won't have thousands in my sample size, but when I have 50 I will post and link screen shots of every hand for those that are interested.

Only a week? I have it lasts 4 months and there is no end to it.

Seems statistically improbable the way it often happens. And I never have a period where my best hand holds up for a week without losing.

Just play poker. Yes, play tighter, but remember that you are playing poker. If you are dealt AA, then you must raise, even if the aces have been moved for the last five times in a row. You need to play poker as correctly as you can during the streak. This will help you get out of it faster.Play shorter sessions. You are more prone to tilt during a streak. Play less. Focus more on the gameplay, this will help you avoid tilt.in general, your graph looks great and this variance is quite normal, nothing critical, good luck
