I suspect the solution is different for everyone. I'm just coming out of a streak where I played 130 MTT without a cash.

For me it helps to play something different. I decided to cut back online and play more live, figuring that even if I didn't win anything it would at least slow down the flow of cash that I was hemorrhaging. Luckily, I made 5 final tables out of 6 tournaments and my confidence came back.

I went back to online play and got a couple of cashes, nothing much, but it's a start. That being said, I do intend to play a lot more live poker, I deffo think it's easier to make money live than online these days, but you have to pick the right games and be careful to keep the expenses down.

So, My advice, Play somehing different foe a while. A change is as good as a rest.

You need to expect you can win to play with a winning style. No matter how well you play, a series of losses compromises this. I would go do something completely different for a bit.
When you come back, move into a game that you totally crush, like $10 online sit n gos. Build your confidence back up then go back to what you play.
Good luck.

The main advantage of live over tinternet is you get to see the look on the guy's face when you flip your Q6.

if you are playing online, did you withdraw some cash just before the bad run started? There's no way that internet poker is straight. Concentrate on playing live only.
