    Not a downswing, but I once lost £200 betting on Hull City. Hull City for crying out loud! What was I thinking?

    Worst Downswing:

    £12K/$18K on Stars playing $55-$215 tournaments, made me revert back to Sky as my main site.

    Cheers,

    I forgot I posted this thread and only just got round to reading all the responses all of which either interested me or amused me. I'd try and revive this but fortunately poker has been going pretty well for me as of late 8) I'll eagerly share some misery when my fortunes inevitably turn. Anyone on a sickening downswing which they wish to share?

    Downswing, lets see. I deposited £10/£20 in July 2011 and pretty much every couple  of weeks or so if not more since. Must of cost me a couple of grand. So here I am today 3 years and 9 months on still doing the same..sigh It's not all bad news tho, The winter Olympics committee have decided  to use my sharkscope graph as a template  for the next down hill ski run.

    Well at least something kind of good came out of it! Just a shame that nobody watches the winter olympics

    Putting £3k on a hand of Blackjack and being dealt a 13 versus a King.  Took me roughly two and a half hours to click my next action.

    Even with my extremely limited knowledge of blackjack I know that sucks, pretty sickening situation! How did it end?

    Also this must be the first forum thread where someone talking about a current downswing their having acknowledges it being a downswing/variance and not due to sky being rigged! WP :)

    I usually find it's the long term losers that start blaming their losses on the site. Still I appreciate the praise, even if it's praise for not being an idiot! :)

    It happens, we all make mistakes. In future I'd recommend not betting on teams who's players snort coke. Even **** Burnley managed to beat Hull and we never beat anyone!

    The only football related bet I've ever made was on Leicester to get relegated. After my bet they went on to win 4 out of their 5 next games after being useless all season and are looking certain to stay up... so I can't really criticise your betting choice
