Just keep doing what you're doing and things will turn around.

Here's how I deal with a downswing:

• You can treat them as good mental practice, and see them as a challenge, which you loose if you tilt too much or too long. I know this works for me. This meta-view helps me to care less about the results themselved, and more about my attitude about it, and it can even make me feel proud when I don't feel too bad after losing some buy-ins.
• Reviewing the biggest pots I played helps after a big loss. The outcome is always positive: either you find some mistakes and you can learn something, which is good; or you find you played good and you were just unlucky, which boosts your confidence and takes away the doubts you had after your bad run, which is also good.

Good luck in your next sessions!

Not sure what it has to do with 9gag, but I got my answer from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Great results for the month! Looking forward to seeing you stream

I've long since given up all hope of ever being able to play through a PLO4 ticket.

Any 6, 7 or 8 gives him the win, which is 9 outs or roughly 36%. With the 4% backdoor equity added that makes 40%. So again, as your previously deleted "bad beat", this is a situation you will lose 4 times out of 10 after the chips go in on the flop. I know it always hurts if it's the decisive hand for the win, but if you can't get over that, you shouldn't play SNG's until you've practiced your mental game a bit more, because spots like that happen all the time.

You shouldn't complain. There were still about fourty horsemen left in the deck, so even on the flop he was still a big favourite. He was ahead, just didn't have a made hand yet. Or did that mean that you were ahead at that point although he had more equity. Or were you ahead because his equity wasn't realized yet, or... Oh no not this again.

Thanks for the alias inspiration!

@MathrimC congrats for your results and if I calculated ok you won with 67 pts and I'm the runner-up with 64 pts ( I was 3rd in Butler League 1, 39th in Butler League 2 and 5th in the Butler League 3)

Thanks! I made the same calculation. Only couln't find the Butler League 2 winner in the other two tournaments, so if he played them with a different alias, he might still win it.

4th in butler league 1&2, and 14th in butler league 3. Think I might get close to the win this week :)
