Default Re: Adjusting to a bad streak.

I went through this the last couple weeks.

I ran REALLY bad online, then lost a couple grand at 20-40 at commerce.

Then went back to my best game (stud)... and ran HORRIBLE there (lost with aces up more times in one session than I can ever remember).

Anyways. I came home and had a friend evaluate about 2,000 hands of play on-line at low limits. I once again made SEVERAL mistakes and ran SICK cold. Losing about 140 big bets over 2,000 hands by being over aggressive when I was behind, and under aggressive when I was ahead. My stats (percentage wise) looked good... but obviously my lines and read were WAY off.

I've decided to take 4 days off... re-work my game... re-read some books / 2+2 posts... and change my card room for a short period. I might go play up north and/or head out to Vegas.

The best thing you can do is NOT get passive or emotional (which is a HUGE flaw in my game).

Good luck
