    I know getting good cards is part of the game but what do you do when your not catching good cards? Outside of praying is there anything you do to change your karma? Thanks for the tip...

    Spy, you just have to deal with the cold cards and try not to let it effect you psychologically. The problem will eventually pass, just try to make sure you don't go on tilt or make any negative adjustments to your overall game because of it. Try playing on a different site if you feel like you are getting into a rut on your normal one.

    when i run bad i stop for a min of a day or two -
    when i come back i play very tight just to see how it is going -

    the funny thing about running bad is that you try to do to much caue your do norm isnt working " when your car is maken funny sounds it not time to enter a race its time for a tune up ... so play a lil less come to the table ready to play and win

    best of luck

    You'll be better off if you quit thinking about luck and karma and just concentrate on the right play for the given situation.

    Kick my dog. If that doesn't work I get away from the tables for a while. When the cards are not hitting my attitude has a lot to do with turning my "luck" around.

    Change your pants, change your luck :)
    Alternatively, just believe in your game. As with all games of this type, blackjack especially springs to mind there are swings in the cards. At times a player or seat on a table will just keep hitting no matter what. There is nothing you can do about this, just have faith that your turn will come in the hot seat too. And remember luck can only ever play a part in one hand at a time, ultimately skill will prevail.
