If your ego can handle it (and I don't mean that in an insulting way, but every poker player has an ego), moving down is the best. I did it after a huge losing stretch in MTTs, and success there got my confidence back up to return to my normal stakes. As for those hands, 1st hand the guy's clearly insane, 2nd hand is hard to get away from as people will often shove QT/Q9/JT/J9 as much as two pair there, and 3rd hand should be a fold on the turn, even if it's a really hard fold to make.

I have moved down and readjusting to nl4, massive difference limping otb and weird ****!
still the usual 2-3 outers on river tho, but the pots are 1/3 smaller than nl10, so its damage limition!
qq vrs aa twice, jj's q/k/a high flops, kk on ace high flops, sets vrs 2pr, its tight, but sure hopefully be over soon!

I'm no expert but whenever I hit a downswing I stop immediately and play again after an hour and seems to work realatively well removing the tilt

Are you automatically giving up on the hand when this happens? If so, be careful of the "he could have a better hand therefore he must have a better hand" logic.

I'm def not giving up, always cbettiing it and prob betting the turn, but mainly checking river, i mean if its a dry board say ace 4 9 rainbow, i cbet he calls, he calls the turn-1/2 pot bet- say a 10, what does he really reap here to call flop and turn bet, i accept this is weak tight but in nl10 im finding ppl play ace anything- fair enough he can have lots of pocket pairs and call the cbet on that board but i think he would fold when u bet the turn hes only calling with ace x. IMO

man this has been 4 days, havent played the day yet thinking of giving it a miss!
Its kinda not a bad thing as its making me look other areas of plays, and think abt things! its just from the point of view i started with like $4 and worked it up to $300 only to lose $180 of it to this down swing!
