I think I'm still 12 years old...

Assuming you're multitabling, you may want to try what has really worked well for me. I always buy in with the same amount at every table I play. Whenever I lose 50% of my buyin at any table, REGARDLESS OF HOW GOOD THE GAME IS, I leave that table the next time I have to post a blind.

There are many who have told me that it's not right to leave a "good" game. However, I have decided that it's NOT a good game if I have lost 50% of my buyin. It doesn't make much difference to me WHY I've lost, only that I HAVE lost. There could be many reasons that I've lost 50% on that table. I could ERRONEOUSLY believe it was a good table, the variance at that table is killing me, etc. Rather than fret about it, I just leave and open a new table and usually that does it for me.
