    Meh, what is that? You lost 2000+ $'S if betting $5 min bet? $10,000 if betting $25 min bet? Not something entirely outrageous. Probably just brutal variance rearing its ugly head. Almost should expect that if playing for some extended period of time.
    Timidity is dangerous: Better to enter with boldness. Any mistakes you commit through audacity are easily corrected with more audacity.

    What is your max bet? Was 20 units(min bet) your max bet. Let me assume 20 units ,so 457 /20 = ~ 22 max bets. Not too uncommon ,just not often. EVen at 10 units as max bets it is only 46 units,a bit more uncommon . That is the reason for min 100 max bets . BETTER TO HAVE 200 MAX BETS.I would really want to have 400 max bets,maybe even 600-800 max bets.

    We pay a LOT of attention to the issues of:

    R O R NO Bankroll :: Spread, etc. etc. etc.

    This is a perfect example of why we do so.

    • Did you resize your betting unit as your BR shrunk ?
    • Did you advance to a stronger count ?
    • Did you take a sabbatical from playing ?
