Themightyjim Shares Insights on Dealing with a Downswing in Poker
Themightyjim is currently experiencing a significant downswing, losing $16.8k with an EV shortfall of $17.5k over the last 95,000 hands. In a recent post, he shares his thoughts on dealing with this challenging period and improving his game.
Themightyjim advises against playing more than nine tables simultaneously, as it leads to poor decisions and tilt. He suggests concentrating on fewer tables to make better decisions and avoid the constant time pressure.
He also recommends experimenting with new lines, sizings, and ranges in PLO post-flop strategy. Themightyjim has been adjusting his post-flop strategy in PLO, focusing on playing with uncapned ranges at high SPR. He notes that this approach has made his decisions easier and has put his opponents in difficult positions.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
