Bonsai loss

Sometimes, it's as satisfying to sustain a minimal loss as it is to achieve a maximal gain. That was the case last night, when I wagered $400,000 and lost just $9,000, or 2.25%. I ran the numbers and that's my personal best minimal loss, percentage-wise, in MTT-R NLHEs. In other good news, I stopped my MTT-R NLHE losing streak at 14. My session losing streak is still alive at 10, but who's counting? :-)
