This might be a helpful post for some.


I had been playin great poker and building my stack. But for the past few sessions I have been playing less than my A game and cant seem to get things goin. What should I do to get back on track??

I have always felt it best to break out of a slump by changing up your style of play. Be a little more aggressive or play tighter. Either way you will recognize flaws in your normal style and ultimately develop a newer, smarter style of play. And do not tell me your style of play is the best, as you would be on every television poker commercial making millions of dollars.

Its not a bad idea to switch sites awhile.I have found that if I get in a slump at one site,I switch to another, and If you are not hitting good there.You are in a slump at two or more sites,its time for a break.

Just take a break and come back. When you're in the mindset that you're doing bad, you will do worse.

Everybody goes through a slump, the best way to keep your slump to a minimum is to limit your losses. When you get to you limit, quit for the day. Eventually, you will get back to a winning hands again. You cannot always expect to win. And when you are losing, play tighter, only play premium hands. You do have to take the bad with the good.
