Ever less and ever worse

I first used this blog post title on September 22nd of last year. Here's what I had to say:

Last night, I had an ever less and ever worse session; each succeeding tournament, I lasted fewer hands than the previous one, and also had a lower percentile. My blue distance ratio increased to 13.9%, which is the highest it's ever been since I started playing MTT-R NLHEs. If it ever reaches 20%, I'll start to worry, but not until then :-)

This very nearly applies verbatim to last night's session; the only difference is that my blue distance ratio increased to 13.8%. For the record, the highest it's ever been since I started playing MTT-R NLHEs is 21.2%, on December 21st of last year.
