Disaster – I noticed an email that said I had already received the $30 rakeback. I checked my PokerTracker and it seems I’ve lost $36 in the last week, and so the Rakeback payment had gone in covering this loss! My bankroll stands still
Do I play highly swingy poker? It seems to be a 1k session where I win 4 buy-ins, and then 4 sessions where I lose a buy-in in each. Is that normal? Looking at other graphs they seem less extreme than this, but I’m probably misreading things. Would knowing my standard deviation help?
Equally, if I do play swingy poker, then how do I feel about that? For comparison, if by magic I played 6bb/100 perfectly consistently, then a 1k hands session would win 60bb. Less than a buy in. How unexciting would that be – a true grind! Maybe I should embrace my swinginess….
