Hope it ends sooner rather than later.
Avoid distractions, tv was my biggest hindrance.

If in a losing streak, you should do some things>
Play tighter
Go and re-read some of the learning material
Take a break, go out, make some fitness, have a nice time

How many times have you felt in the worst card streak in history? that no matter how much you play well and put your money in the best hand, the cards just don't come out as they should ... or how many times do you decide to go all in pre flop with KK and your opponent pays immediately with AA? ... Well I think this has happened to all of us and not just once but several times, the question is ... what do you do to stay calm and focused when you are right in the middle of a very bad streak? ... apparently I am falling in one right now and I would like to read your advice or anecdotes .... Here he goes as I manage (if you can call him that) the bad streaks ... 1. I stop watching TV while I play (lol) 2. I stop using the semi-bluff so frequently. 3. When I go on tilt I prefer to run or go for a beer ... 4. I curse my luck !!! haha Comment ... Cheers
Few times, however I face it as a good opportunity to improve my game.

It's best to stop playing poker for a few days and spend time with family and friends.

Is not easy, but you need to keep studying and improving your game, that's my way.

Step back, review your hands, and make sure it’s not just variance. Take breaks, stay disciplined, and remember: downswings happen to everyone.
