I am usually drinking when I have a bad game so sleep makes me forget. Its also easy to blame a bad game on heavy drinking.

I listen to music, have a coffee step outside for some air, everyday poker is at difference, you have to take the good with the bad and the bad with the good,

I take my dog outside to get some fresh air and walk around. It makes him happy so I feel better and forget about the game. :)

after bad day, i go outside do some other stuff, like go with mine dogs to forest, or make fireplace and watch how wood is burning.

If you hit a bad streak, it's not a bad idea to take a break; whether its for a few hands or a few months (depending on how bad it is).

No one has ever said, "Man, I really regret walking away from that game" after a streak of poor play. Reset and come back fresh.

Nowadays, I just open a next table and move on. There's nothing more I can do.

Sometimes we suffer a giant bad, but others we cause it. So, we need to get over.
