Default My slump strategy

When I am in a slump I usually resort to this method of making money. I get into a cash game, and I play until I win one pot. When I am up a dollar or two or maybe 5, I leave the table and get into a sit n go with the free money. It is my way of free riding. Eventally, My luck turns and I dont have to leave the tables with little profits. It is my way of free-rolling when I am in a horrible slump. Also, I usually cash out and move to a different site after a really good upswing. I keep money on 5 diff sites to allow for this. I know this may sound ill-logical to some, but it works for me. Also, I agree totally with Wyte's comments that poker is completly irrational at times and insane. You must check your emotions and pride at the door.
