Personal best losing streak

It's never a good idea to talk about a winning streak while it's still in progress, since that might jinx it. I'm curious if the same applies to a losing streak :-) In the hope that it does, let's talk about my losing streak in MTT NLHEs. On Friday night, with 5 more failures to make the money, I set a new personal best - I've now lost 11 MTT NLHEs in a row (and I may not be done yet). My previous personal best was 9 in a row. I came very close to making the money in two of the MTTs in that streak, and had the bad luck to hit the rail when an opponent hit a two outer in one of those two. I would certainly have made the money if my 95.45% chance of winning that hand had held up.
