New personal worst

The longer you've played poker, the harder it gets to set either a new personal best or a new personal worst. I've mentioned before that I get almost as much of a thrill from setting a personal worst as I do from setting a personal best. That may seem strange, but it's the truth. I love setting records of any kind :-)

This is an excerpt from my April 9, 2015 post. My new personal worst: the most money I've lost in a single session. I lost $22,320,000 last night, besting my previous record of $21,700,000, set on June 29th. For the sixth session in a row, I set a new all-time blue distance. I swear I haven't been playing badly; I'm just in a massive downswing.
