This happens to us all at some point, we get bad runs and good runs. You'll just got to remain calm on a bad run and uber focused on a good run.

If you find you've gone on a bad run and are losing money, my advice would be to sit back and think 'would I do exactly the same thing again'. By going over your hands and working out what you did and what you would do in the future, not only will it improve your game, but it should keep you calm and stop you going on tilt. Whatever you do, don't take it personally, it's just maths at the end of the day. Most of the best pros in the world constantly rerun their bad beats and bad runs in their heads, they work out if they did the right thing at each stage - if you did the right thing then there's no need to worry, if you made a mistake, well, you've thought it through and you won't do that again, will you. Bad runs can make a good player into a great player if it's helps them focus in on their game.

Good luck, hope it all turns around for you soon.
