I love to pick on people that are "running bad", I got a guy to lay down KK preflop this weekend because he was running bad and I push his buttons.

Just thought I'd like to chime in with a General Surgeon Warning that trying to push people off their big pocket pairs preflop is the leading cause of bankroll cancer...

isnt it quite the opposite? People with KK during a bad day are less likely to make the fold preflop. "...It cant be aces again"

I still havent figured it out. I think the biggest thing I do when I'm on a downswing is replay my hands and looks at my HH and make sure its not me. A downswing can be even worse if you loose confidence in your game...

When I'm losing I always assume that it's my fault. Even the bad beats. I don't play perfect poker so I use losing as an excuse to examine my leaks (which I never bother to look for when I'm winning).
