Limpet Hold 'Em

Nice.. did I just coin that phrase 'limpet hold 'em'? It refers of course to those damn opponents who won't let go with their bottom pair of 7's on a board full of overcards and thus beat my unimproved AQ.

I keep getting drawn back to 6-max limit hold 'em like a dog to a puddle of sick. It is odd, when I don't much like hold 'em, or limit poker. But the rakeback is awesome in comparison to my normal games (sooo many more hands) and I just don't understand how I can't be winning.

But I'm not!

And on that note, I have a question and would really appreciate comments just this once, from people with experience of the game. In a nutshell, in 100 words or less, is it possible that I am winning player at 6-max limit hold 'em when I am down 69 big bets over 19 hours? I'm only playing 3-6, and the time has been split about equally between playing one table and playing two at once.

Thanking you in advance for your views....

Down 69BB over 19 hours?

I am guessing that equates to your havingt played roughly 3000 hands during that time, and being down $414.

I play exclusively shorthanded (after bouncing back and forth between shorthanded and full ring games for months, before finding my feet), and a downswing of 69BB's is nothing to worry over.

When you find yourself stuck 200BB, then you need to worry.

Swings of up to 100BB in a session can happen, and swings of 30-50BB per session are commonplace (I see a typical session as being around 400-500 hands a time).

So I wouldn't worry, just study the shorthanded section of Holdem For Advanced Players by Sklansky, and you should be fine.
