Yeah I totally agree here. Normally I just move on and it turns out ok. But I think it's unrealistic to expect that you're gonna be cold as ice no matter how bad it goes.. sometimes you just get that "last drop". Or not?..

I can look over the hands from a session and truly discover if I was getting hammered by bad luck - or if I was letting bad luck affect my play. Quite simply, the latter happens a lot more than any of us want to admit ("if it wasn't for luck, I'd win every time)".
