Default Should I go to the casino today?

I have been running very well over the last week, both online and live. However, tonight I took a massive beating, buying in 10 times, completely on tilt, getting outdrawn for all my chips with legitimate hands. So with bad session last night I was just curious if that could translate to a bad (or worse) session today at the cardroom. Thanks.

Don't go. You are a fish.

go if you're feeling good and don't think last night's play will affect your performance.

You are clearly running terribly. You need to be very wary about playing poker during a bad streak. You should either not go to the casino at all or go just to test the waters, if you take a bad beat or two you are clearly still running bad and you should get the hell out of the casino as quickly as possilble.

The good news is, all cold streaks end and someday you will go on a rush. Play as much as you can when that happens and be sure to loosen up appropriately. You don't get abnormally lucky at poker every day, you need to exploit it when it happens.

Wait until Jupiter's moon is in the House of Aquarius, swing a dead chicken over your head 3x in a graveyard and then head straigt to the casino ( however, wash your dead chicken hands before handling the chips please [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img])

What a dumbass reply. Everyone knows you have to swing the chicken at least five times.

How you have been running should not affect your decision to play today. The fact that you buy in 10 times when you are on tilt should affect your decision to play today. Learning to not go on tilt or to walk away when you do is critical.

yeah losing 10Buy-ins is almost impossible to do just by running bad in one night. You need to reevaluate your game.

mathematically (games are better in the afternoon usually but this is not what im talking about) there is no differnce when you play but if you are still feeling... tilty or still upset about your loss you probably should avoid it.
