Message: [QUOTE="jordanbillie, post: 5651987, member: 31329"] Evan, I just watched your video on how to get out of a downswing. Thank you! Your words were exactly what I needed to hear today. Last week I decided to jump in limits ($10 and $20 MTTs instead of $2 and $5 MTTs), and I have been running awful in the larger games. My BR was up to around $1,600 at the time I jumped up in limits and I have now lost about $120 (down to $1,480). I am very similar to the person you describe in your video as being obsessed with my graph and being at a new high all the time. I know the amount of buy-ins that I have lost is quite small, but the $ amount is what has shifted my consciousness to believing that I am in a downswing. I think I am going to take a few days off of poker, read some of my philosophy books, and then come back to the $5 MTTs for a little bit. Build up that confidence and then get back to stacking! Thanks Evan, you are very valuable to this poker community. :) Jordan [/QUOTE]
