Rather than focus on all the coolers or bad beats, why not focus on hands where you could have possibly extracted more value or hands where you were beat, but could have gotten away sooner? Every poker player "runs bad", but MOST poker players actually play worse when that is happening, which is why things always seem worse than they really are and why people love to label themselves as in a downswing or try to predict that they are due for a heater.
Remember, you are NEVER in a downswing and are NEVER due for a heater. Past results as they relate to luck DO NOT have any bearing on how future luck will play out.
I don't think anyone doubts you've had several bad situations, but I also doubt you've been playing optimal poker and still don't think you've been sticking to a 5% loss of bankroll daily stop loss.
Good luck turning it around.
