Re-read some poker books.

Go thru the hand history function and be critical over hands that you have played.

Try new things out on some low level SnGs.

OFC it may just be being hit by a cold deck, however when these thins happen to us we then start playing bad and doing things we wouldn't ususally do.  Being honest with yourself about your game is the fastest and most effective way of getting out of the 'cold deck' mindset.

tbh not much i could do in any of the hands flop set 3 times in a day lose to a higher flopped set, then i flop quads n lose to runner runner for his quads so im playing well just not getting any of the poker g od scenario.

thats just it.  you are look at the hands that took you out of the tournie.  just because you got felted by a cold deck doesn't meant that you are playing well.

the biggest hurdle to take when it comes to poker is to swallow pride and say ok im playing bad.  i realise when im playing bad, and do things to correct it.

sticking your head in the sand and saying over and over again i lost quads over quads isn't gonna help.

EDIT:  However if you really think that your game is going good atm, and you are just on the end of some serious variance smashing, then change nothing as the variance will even it all out and you'll take down a nice cash/win soon.  Tournie poker has a strong element of luck, and it is not uncommon to go 100 tournies without a cash.  Mentally that is very tough so you just gotta find a way to deal with it.

Big Solar hugs Kev, know the feeling but you are a class act and the cream always rises to the top, keep your strategy and play your game and you know its all down to variance, take a break again and put it all down to a bad night, it happens and you will be back, you have helped my game no end so don't forget you are loved and we all want you playing well on Sky and staying as a respected member of the community.
