Re: The final truth about down swings.
[ QUOTE ]
I firmly believe that downswings happen because of the player, not the cards... Learn to fold in tight marginal situations.. Alot of players i notice when complaining about badbeats and downswings and whatnot, they will play badly until they start getting lucky again, and then their game will pick up from there.. because they are happy again.
If you face a couple beats in a night stop, go out to the bar, get laid, and go back to playing poker.. Its the player that creates bad runs, not the cards... believe me.

People do run bad, and can play well through the dry spell.
What you are describing is common, however, and should be looked for by anyone who hasn't conquered a downswing by taking the steps that OP mentioned.
It is usually the first cause. But that doesn't mean it's the final answer.
