Mods, please let me have this one.

Basically I'm in the middle of a 12BI downswing and simply can't pull out of it. Never have I had such a spell of spew, coolers and 2 outers all at the same time.

If you could do graphs of live downswings, I would oblige you, but thankfully you can't. See it written down is bad enough.

We use a range of risk management tools to help prevent bad down-swings. In the begining it was difficult to get some of our sponsored players to believe that risk (bankroll) management could make a significant difference to you overall success.

We used graphs like the attached to show how big an impact it could actually make.

While the amounts here are not huge it still represents a 25k difference after six months..

The red graph is the actual .. while the blue graph is the difference risk managment would have made.

Needless to say risk managment is NOT AN OPTION with our players ... hehe

lol ive lost count of the amount of times ive had these moments - i think the latest one is fairly concrete and i can see myself taking a break from online poker for a few months at least - then again i did say that last month:rolleyes:
