I'm going to heed my own statement and give some actually practical advice instead of just speculating about the reasons. There is nothing new in the following, but good advice is good no matter how often it get said:

- Take a week of from poker. Don't play poker, don't read poker, don't think poker. Play with your kids or invent a new form of penecilin.
- Drop down in limits. Don't even think of recouperating your losses, just focus on getting your game straight.
- Post hands and focus on your ring game for a while. Tourneys will still be there once you get back on your feet.
- Play shorter sessions and fewer tables. It's important that you don't fall into automode; this is when we fall back to loosing patterns.
- Stop analyzing what went wrong over the last couple of months. Focus on the future, the next hand. We tend to get into 2nd guessing ourselves when running bad.
