I would say to keep playing the way you are if you are actually playing well. step back and look at you hand history to actually see if you are playing as well as you think. you may find something small that can make you start winning again. DON'T BLUFF TO MUCH. good luck

In my experience (~80K hands), NL25 is pretty much a value betting clinic. Cut out the fancy stuff, and make sure you're getting maximum value. Default with TPTK type hands should be bet/bet/bet, rather than a street removed for pot control.

I'm also having trouble dealing with the swings, as I took August off and in my first 5000 hands at NL25 I'm +/- 0.

if you honestly feel you are playing your best poker and on your A game then dont change anything and the results will come

if results stay the same then it might be time to evaluate your play

Hacker and gogzy are dead on. Most of my experience is at 25 max, and most of my big mistakes (impacting results) have come from deviating from ABC poker.

Playing ABC in that field can be frustrating in bad runs, or rather when donktards keep defying all logic and taking your cash way more than they should. Kinda makes me understand why PH gets so pissed all the time when he loses.

Post some PT numbers though. That usually provides some insight.
