move up to a level you can only min-buy at heads up....then steal BB's until you have rebuilt your roll

umm stop caring about $300......

seriously though, this is not that bad of a downswing, just take a break for a few days and use the time to review your play.

IDC about the money, i said be4, i haven't double up in 9 str8 days, my hands are not holding, constantly having 2 outer suckouts, and in some cases on the river. I'm losing too many pots with premium hands. For instance, yesterday 45off crack my Jacks (floped the nuts str8, although I didnt go broke), afterwards, 34 crack my Queens ( hit trips on the turn and fh on the river) suckouts like that.

That is why im concern!!!

This is the best advice. When you go on a bad downswing, use that as incentive to work on your game.

The other thing you can do is what you said already, tighten up and play stronger hands overall. That reduces variance. Stay out of marginal spots, playing out of position, etc.

Don't leave Bodog, though! I doubt you'll find a more profitable place to play.
