Default How to play when your table image is completely shot?

So After tilting pretty badly and being caught bluffing on 2 huge hands, Im getting looked up on every hand I have. Also Since I was quite aggro everyone is checking to me and if i bet, they auto checkraise.

Im assuming the easy solution to this is to unplug my computer and quit cuz im tilting...but....

Should I only play premium hands, and play them very aggresively, and when they check raise me, auto push?

Should I leave the table and rebuild my image?

If you can't move to another table because all 500 thousand poker tables on the Internet are full, the best thing to do is tighten up tighter then a snare drum.

Just stick to playing good hands for a while and bet them hard as you'll get paid.

Bluff and steal much less, but on the upside you should get called down by some more marginal holdings, permitting you to bet some hands for value that you otherwise couldn't.

Switch up your game or move to a different table? How hard is it to stop betting with crap when people check to you?

Tighten up and value bet your good hands. If you're going to LAG it up you have to recognize when people are playing back at you / calling down with marginal hands and change your game.
