[Dealing With A Cold Streak]

So for the first time in my poker career, I'm on an awful cold streak and don't really know what to do to deal with this mentally.It's our weekly home game, and though the buy in is small ($5 with the possibility of one rebuy), it's never really been about the money. In the past year or so, I've went from winning about 50% of the time and top3-ing the other 50% to now I'm lucky if I hit top 5. I feel like I'm making excellent reads and decisions still, just always ending up against a monster when I have something decent (kings running into aces like four times over the last several weeks). Everytime I've put money in the pot in an all in situation, I've been ahead, and usually dominating. But the amount of suckouts and such is ridiculous.What do you guys do to help get yourself through the cold streaks?

Anytime someone loses something, it's rigged.It's gambling. People have to lose.

I wasn't attacking you. I was answering your question. I don't really care either way.

This thread reaks of bullshit

I'll bet a dollar that verbal kint is actually Jackal. Anyone up for that action?

[what to do when you're running bad]

I take the cover off a light socket and cram my limp dick in it.

Allllllllrighty then

[neverwin vs dn]

I just read through all of this and I simply have one thing to say. I don't know who this Neverwin kid is, why he thinks he's king turd of crap mountain, or why he would talk smack to someone who is obviously a helluva poker player. All I know is beating this guy isn't enough Daniel. Teach this kid a lesson in the worst way. And then let me bone his sister.

Worst case scenario is you bring it and they just won't let you put it on. I say go for it.

[online poker boring??]

people who play in casinos usually are their to have a good time and arent that educated in poker. online players seem to at least know what they are doing. i think  players are way more agressive online because no one can see them. u get some 5'11 150 pound 19 year old sitting up in his room  who likes to bully people around online, but he couldnt sell that image in a card room or casino and he wouldnt have the balls to go into a casino and play like that. live play is alot more passive.

I agree. I hate it when people get into a raise fest and it turns out that all three of them are just holding rags. Utterly ridiculous. That's when it stops being fun and starts being a gigantic pain in my arse.
