What's your longest non-cash streak?

I'm at 20 and I hope I can stop counting soon. EDIT - stopped counting at 20 (phew)

I'm a + ROI player in these so even though i'm reviewing my play carefully I think i'm just on a dead streak. I'm only playting micros though because I love the 18s and I want to get good at them and gradually move up the buy-ins.

What's your longest streak?

I play these regularly and I had one of about 20 recently.  If you are playing them properly there is bound to be non-cash streaks like this.  Keep at it though, they are definitely very profitable.

20 or so is definitely possible

If you are good, you'll cash in about 25-30% of these.

For a good simulation, roll two dice 1000 times and record the results.  The chances of eitehr a 7 or a 10 hitting is 25%.  You'll haev several streaks of neither of thise numbers hitting for a while.  Count the longest streak.

I've had a few cashless streaks of over 20 at 18 player games.All you can do is keep looking at your game to make your it's not affecting you and ride it out.GL

I think my longest losing streak is about 14 games - I am not a + ROI player though. - yet - so when I go on those streaks it bites - I tend to cash about one in every 6 or 7 games (averaged out...very approximate). I'm working on upping that stat, obv...keep at it and hope to see you at the tables
