Help Needed

[Belly77]

I'm on the tilt. Can't win a game for love nor money at the moment. Not hitting anything on the board and when I do I get busted by a gut shot. My bank roll, which I've spent months building has now halved. I was making a good profit on the $5.50 STT's. Read a couple of poker books and my bank roll was looking good and I felt I was ready to step up to the $10 tables. Won the first couple of games and then had a couple of 2nds places and all was good. I then lost a couple and it's been down hill ever since. Started to get a bit worried about my loses so I switched back to the $5 to try and get my loses back but the rot seems to have set in. Need some advice before I'm bck to square 1 :cry

Re: Help Needed How often do you play? Sometimes it's best to take a week or two off. Get back to wanting to play instead of wanting to not lose - the psychological difference can be quite a factor in how you play. Do a few cheap MTT's to get back into the feel of long term concentration on the cards and try different strategies - loose, tight, uber tight. This should at least get your game back to what you are comfortable with. Thats what i'd do.
