Biggest downswing running below EV

Downswing graph pokertracker4

The challenge is still ongoing and as I write this post now I have about 150$ in my bankroll from the 50$ I started with. However I’m currently on the biggest downswing I’ve experienced as a poker player. This month I have been playing about 40 000 hands with a lot of mixed formats such as zoom, 6-max, fullring poker. But there is nothing you can do when you’re running bad and being unlucky. For example when I get it in good preflop with AA vs JJ but the river gives the opponent a straight and so on.
This month I should have made about 60$ but instead I’m down 5$ as you can see on my graph below.

This is a real test for me and how long I can endure until it turns around. I know that it eventually will turn around, and yes sometime I do make bad play no question about it but overall I think I play ok. The challenge continues and I will try to update more often here and you can cath me next time I stream on Twitch.
