When do you know you\'re playing badly?
 

I've been on a pretty bad run lately and it seems like it's just bad luck, but when it's been happening as often as it has I'm starting to wonder if it's my play that is causing me to lose. When do you know that it's not bad luck, but bad play that is the cause of losing?

when you review your play and see how bad you're playing

find people to show hands to and discuss hands with. Post hands here on 2+2. I think deep inside we all know when we are playing bad (or at least instances where we played poorly - might be one hand, or one tournament or whatever) but I really feel like others can help us spot it when we are in "denial".

And after a tournament is over, always go back to the HH and look at the "key hands" to see if if you could have lost less/won more (or maybe you never should have gotten involved with the hand in the first place).

I know I'm playing badly because I am playing.

This is true except for those rare times I am playing well and don't realize it.
