Default Re: \"Card Dead\" -- How do you deal with it?

I've been in this situation a number of times in the last couple of months where I'm not even finding good sneaky limp in hands that could flop/turn monsters.
And I'm playing on tables where guys are capping with 3/5 offsuit pre-flop where they hit 2 pair and turn a full house. Or in a spread limit game where they are raising the full spread with unsuited garbage and 4 out of 5 hands they do this flop a straight...LOL
This guy actually got angry when it didn't happen the 5th time.
Then when I finally can play a hand *only monsters preflop because I'm constantly raised off of marginal holdings* they fold and I take down small pots causing me to have a number of losing sessions.
However then there come the days when every hand you have seems to hit.
You raise jacks only to get reraised knowing they have aces and a jack hits on the flop.
Or you limp in with a/r suited in MP to find you're 4 to the flush and getting a lot of multiway action and catching it on the turn.
You have to take the good with the bad, and hope those good days cover those bad... it's the only thing keeping me sane these days...LOL.
