Upswing Downswing!

When i started playing poker i played with playmoney almost for a year and then made my first deposit and lost it all. Then i made another deposit and started winning a lot. It was really fun!! i played about 12hours in row and result was 100$---->700$. after i got some sleep i started my second upswing day 700$--->1500$, third day 1900$ and then everything went wrong!! I lost it all in 2days!Even if i had three aces after flop someone gets better always at the river and they call my bigg bets on the turn!! This happends me all the time, i win lot for a couple days and then i lose next ten days! It's unbelievable but now im smarter and sometimes get some money back to my wallet!

Posted on Jul 11th 2008 by Dingus $100 to $1900 in about 3 days sounds like you were playing limits that were way to high for a $100 initial bankroll. If you happen to get fortunate to build $100 into 2K, you need to drop down limits to something that is more realistic for maintaining a roll. What you are experiencing is short term luck and short term variance. You will win a lot in a short period of time, but see it all go to the gutter due to the natural variance of the game. If you don't have a bankroll large enough to hand the variance, you will most likely end up back at square one, with nothing or little to your name.
