Bad Run

[Pokergod]

I am the midst of a very bad run of cards. Now, I understand that no matter how bad this run is there are plenty of people out there who have experienced worse. This is not a bad beat tale, or a wo is me sob story.

I'm more interested in getting into some of your heads to find out how you all go about combating the inevitable bad runs that naturally occur in Poker, particularly Hold em.

I've always just played through it, and eventually it turns and everything is great again. I think I subconciously tighten up during the losing periods, but I was wondering if this only prolongs the streak instead of minimizing its effects on the bankroll.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for your time,
