Taking a few days off is a good idea. If you have a good poker book, re-consult the pre-flop strategy chart. I'm not suggesting you don't know how to play, but when you sit down and read about poker, it's puts you in a better frame of mind. Maybe there's something you've been missing?
Plus it makes you want to play. (At least it does for me.) GL.

I'm hosting a home tourney next weekend. Think I'll buy Harrington on Hold 'em (the first one again thanks to my wife) - both editions. Would like to put that to work for that. I may even stay off online games until after the tourney.
I hear what you're saying Lou and I know you're not saying I'm bad (although I know I'm avg to decent at best). Just need to reevaluate my play. Perhaps I need to buy poker tracker too... |

For me, bad runs tend to put me in a results-oriented mindset. I try to take a step back, usually coming back down in limits after a brief time away from the tables, and refocus on proper decision making.

Whenever this happens to me i find good articles about poker ot read like Lou was saying, it totally gets me re-focusing, even if i knew all the stuff before, and it also makes me want to play Good Poker again, and it gives me the confidence that i can beat most these chumps out there. Reading the books for me isnt so much about learning new things that i didnt know, its more about getting in the right mindset and knowing i can win.
