Yes, the most important thing is to be convinced that it is not your lucky day and to stop playing poker and not to exaggerate in your belief that you can change this fate ;)

Everyone has this kind of days and there's pretty much only one solution for variance- to put a lot of volume but that's only if your mental poker game is really good and you're able to play your A game even though you have many 'bad hands' in a short time... but if you can't play close to your A game because of this hands- it's better to finish the session early and maybe even take a short break and study important spots from your sessions...

Many days and even if you change platforms it seems that bad luck follows you.
You have to breathe and start from scratch

I have more runs of bad games even though I am playing to win and then like magic I can do no wrong. I'm still having fun though and I'm content, not frustrated. If I relied on the prize money to live, I would have been on welfare many years ago!

There are days when it seems like I'm always drowning on the river

I think that one day everyone has gone through this, and one day it will happen again, it's something that happens to everyone, the important thing is to move on.

I like to look at it as being that much closer to the sunny side of variance.

Poker is a brutal game. All we need to remember is it wont happen to us forever and we will get out turn to run good.

I get them too, comes with poler and lady luck.

Take a break is always the best idea and like most say, don't let your emotions cloud your judgement

There really are days like this, it's horrible, we ask questions about the tournaments and hands we played, whether it really was the best decision at the time, the variance is tough even with the great professionals.

Of course, I also have bad days. But I do not think that this is a problem, for me it is rather a pattern. For me, poker is fun, and I don't stress too much if I'm unlucky, especially because I always stick to bankroll management, and because of that, the bad days aren't so scary for me :)

Lately, sometimes I have days when at least something is going as it should :D All that remains is to amuse myself with fables and fairy tales that distance will return everything

Ooooo yes. One day in month is everything false. I can't win even hand that after turn is 99 % my win. It's miracle, but it happens every time again. And not one or two hands on that evening. I lose many key hands on couple of tournaments. That are times I think that is not normal, but it is.

oh yeah... it happens, and it seems like you're doing everything right and you don't come in with garbage, but you still lose. a couple of times it happened that at the beginning of the tournament you lose half of the stack, then you flounder a little, you dig around, but alas and ah, and at the right moment even a very good hand in a very good position loses some K4o

Unfortunately, such days happen quite often. But I continue to hope that someday I will be very lucky

Days???? I've been going through this for two weeks already - I've never experienced such severe drops before. There have been fluctuations, but to be in the negative for almost a month - it's very, very challenging for me!

Oh yeah, totally get it! Poker's like a rollercoaster, right? You win big, you lose some. It happens to the best of us. Just stay chill, learn from the rough patches, and don't let the good times get to your head too much. Keep grinding, man! Good luck at the tables! 🚀🃏
