How do you handle a cold streak?

[ffcowboy76]

I think I'm starting to come out of a 3 month plus cold streak. I've tried every thing possible to change the streak to no avail. I've taken time off, dropped limits, tried to play through it. Some times you just have to mix the different ideas together and hope for a better outcome next time you play. I've taken about 2 of the 3 months off in small short streaks. Usually around a week at a time and then play a few days. The other night was the first time I made a profit in a session in 3 months. I'm hoping the long cold streak is over.

I'm on a terrible streak all month, but just on fulltilt. The other sites I play at have been normal. I've lost about 30% of my fulltilt roll this month. The sick thing is that I'm playing the same way. I just can't win many showdowns

I'm stuck playing through it because I want to have ironman status for every month in order to unlock the bonuses I'll receive in July. I'm counting on that free 300+ bucks, but it is costing me to play for it.

A good thing to realise is there is a difference between a "Cold Streak" and "Playing Bad".

The trick is realising which one is occuring. Or realising if your as good as you think you are.
