I really do not have any expectations of winning all races...
my expectation simply is that if I get into 10 races where I am FAVORITE (ie 505 or better favorite) I should win about half .. ok let's say I win 40%... or maybe 30% .. or how about just 25%
But getting about 10% seems totally a bad streak variance...
My question was/ is / how do you emotionally cope with it - and don't start doing what I just explained above I find myself doing (overplay mediocre cards or just no aggression left in me). I think I am not really tilting in the true sense of the word (I do that at times too - that is going wild and betting everything at all), I try to be calm before the next game/hand... yes TRY is the word... not always succeeding - hence the question...
PS. I did not really understand your example - just am assuming you are referring to odds
