I did 6 buyins last night
and I`m well peed off. Only NL20 but it hurt man. Just wondering whats the most amount buyins ppl have done and how did they handle it?
Most were outdraws or coolers and I know that is part of the game and these swings are bound to happen at some stage, but it still HURTS.

Hopin for a better day today after yesterday i'm due some luck! five 00 win would be nice lol!
But some days, no matter what you do, you're just going to lose. Bad beats, tilt, tightening up too much, cold decks..you name it, it's going to happen.
So what can you do about it? Maybe have a stop-loss of 3 buyins: no matter what, you walk away after three buyins.
Or you could do what I did: cross over to the dark side and play only MTTs......
In comparrison I once had a 45BI upswing another time so it evens out if you are a good player.
When you're on a downer they can beat your full house just by showing Mr Bun the Baker cards, there isn't anything you can do about it.
It can be horrendous when you go on a long term downswing but eventually it will turn.....Eventually.
keep the faith!
Happens a lot in january i played 2/3 tables for a couple of hours a day after the 17th when i got back home and from then till the end of the month i had KK v AA allin pre or on the flop 12 times and lost every time and i had AA v KK/QQ twice and lost both of those too on 25/50p. For the amount of hands i saw those few days for that to happen must be in the 100000s /1 its like 50/1 that you have KK 6 handed and someone else has AA.
Dont worry about it the most important thing is that its not an excuse to go on tilt, like offshoot said, cos u lose way more tilting than you ever do when u get a couple of outdraws.
I once decimated my BR from 15k down to 3k at 5/10 ring... I never quit when losing tho and it took me 3 hours up until 5 o clock in the morning and managed to get it back up to 9k, and then thankfully over the next week i went on a heater and back up to 15k
