What do you do when you run bad in poker?

[tpaine07]

What are some things you guys do when your running bad in poker? For some reason I can't seem to leave the tables when im running bad. I'll quit for like 20 minutes then come back and try to play as best I can, but still just have bad beats and get dominated by unlikely hands.


Just curious what some of you do when your doing terrible.

go home. its one long game anyway. one session doesn't matter.

go get a massage with a happy ending.

you will never win if you tilt or can't leave a losing session.

if you play online, go through your hand histories a day later. half the time you think you are playing well you really aren't, but can't see it because you are steaming.

You take a break, to me that means aleast a whole day off, sometimes a few days off if it is sports betting.

But some days in poker, the poker gods will not give u a break, every suckout king will get u, don't take a 20 min break and go back at it. You will still be frustrated from earlier action, and if u r still playing w/the same donks, u will start playing at their level. Take the nite off and get ur head clear. Especially in SPORTS BETTING, don't chase the late niters, it could kill ur bankroll.

i agree with the other guys, take a break come back fresh and pound the suckers.

same crap just happened to me table after table, I won't bore you with how bad some of them were... Time to take the weekend off, when AA loses to 10 7 off on runner runner, you know it is not going to get any better....:sadwave:
