I've been playing on the same site for months and it seems like I'm just losing. Will changing platforms help?

There's not real reason why it would....apart from you may start playing with renewed confidence. What would help is taking the CC 30 day poker course

Of course it does, it refreshes your mind and players play differently at different sites. You can change back when your "mood" for the old site comes back.

What do you call losing? Losing money? The most logical thing is that you always win once in a while and lose quite often.

It could help, the strength of the player pools varies amongst sites, you may be able find weaker players by looking at other sites.

In my experience the player pool plays differently at several sites so this could definitely be a game changer for you. Good luck!

Yup.
They all have different algorithms.
I am pretty certain that they program "fairness" into the game in different ways. Which in reality is not fair and is predictable to an extent. Being aware of this is an advantage.
Besides that of course the variance in people populating the site makes a huge difference.

Maybe, but it can go either way. I know that are days that no matter how good I play, I'm not going to win in a specific poker room. So usually on these days, I try to change the room and see if my results are better.

If by "results" you mean win more lose more then yes.

Nothing to do with algorithms or owt, just different players, different mindset

Yes, sites have different algorithms and player behavior also varies.

Player pools vary greatly, so your results may differ between sites. If your skill is poor though, then your results will usually be poor regardless. That is unless you are rigged to win. ;)

A very short message: what discipline do you play? MTT, cash, spins? I need to explain in more detail what I need to understand and help with. And basically, everyone is constantly losing; winning every day is simply unrealistic. Sometimes losing streaks last for six months. The main thing is to work on your game, and one fine day, everything will pay off in full.

Yeah, 100%! For example, back when pokerstars still had freerolls, I played for years and could barely ever make a final table — maybe twice at most. But on 888, I’ve won tournaments multiple times, not to mention reaching final tables pretty often. So yeah, once again, I’m speaking from my own experience.
