well you said it yourself, you have no confidence left. It sounds to me like a good time for a short break, and maybe you should play a lower level when you return.

Yeah, I should definitely have a break and probably play a lower level for a while and get my confidence back again. But I dunno for how long I should have a break. How long break do you usually take when you run horrible?

Like 1-2 days. Drop limits, destroy people, move back up works for me.

i say dont drop down limits. it means youve got to grind back for ages.

compare you PT stats for when you ran well and badly and decide what you need to be doing differently.

Sometimes you play good but cards are just horrible. I'm in a similar situation, I made 7ptbb in september and since then I haven't put a winning session for 12 sessions.
Even if you don't take rough beats all day long you can possibly run bad.

Take a break from poker until you actively feel you want to play it. A week, two; hell, even 1.5 months is OK.
