I understand that 3D is a swingy game, but wow have I been going through some massive swings.-40BB then +60BB over only 112 hands.Is this out of line or normal?

I guess he means 2-7 triple draw?

yeaand i wouldn't worry about bankroll swings in such a small sample, i'd worry more about the cause of it if you weren't comfortable with it...like are you playing too many hands? drawing too often?

i heard that the best TD player who posts on this forum regularly goes through 80+ BB swings in a session.i wouldn't be surprised if someone had a huge database, figured out their standard deviation and calculated that you needed a 500BB+ bankroll to be adequate.

I was told that you probably need a roll that is comparable to a standard SHLHE roll, the swings are about the same.

So I'd be constantly wanting to slit my wrists if I were playing this game as well?

Good to know because this is what has been driving me nuts about this game, but those up swings can be a lot of fun.

Thats pretty much why I quit this game and SHLHE.

SHLHE = shorthanded limit holdem?if SHLHE has big swing, then SH NL would be worse~

In terms of swings to your bankroll, it's not worse.

if you're playing good players and can snow fairly often successfully, 2-7 is the highest variance game out there. AINEC. i regularly have 200BB swings in a day or two when i'm playing it as my main game.

What is a good bb/100 for td? Just starting to play and it seems that it is game where alot of the players lack good fundamentals so I was thinking it may be higher than other limit games.

I have huge swings in the game myself and ive been playing for years. The funny thing is that I have found there to be less swings when I'm playing heads up. Maybe thats because im a good hu player but I think it might be a reality that there are less swings hu in this game.

hi, just missed this:)if you're playing predictable and/or bad players, 5-6BB/100 is a strong winrate, but if you're playing largely against people who know how to mix it up and trick you a bit, 2-3 would be extremely strong.
