Message: [QUOTE="Pokerpoet2, post: 5953568, member: 430261"] Bad Beats and Losing Streaks happen to everyone, I find the best way to handle them is to stop playing and give the game a rest for a while, Come back tomorrow, when the cards may be a little bit better and try again. I played 8 games on Pokerstars one afternoon and got beat in every game, Lady Luck and the Poker Gods must have had a day off, but the next day, I played the same format 8 games and won 6. Poker Variance accounts for many bad beats and suck outs, You could play Pocket Aces several times, but just because the stats say you are favorite 80/20 % of the time does not mean if they lose one time you are going to win the next 4 times you play them. It just does not happen that way, Imagine for one minute that you win 4 times on the trot with Aces, does this mean you should not play them on the 5th time you are dealt them and it should be an automatic fold? Of course not! When the fun Stops, STOP! [/QUOTE]
