Definition of the term "bad run

Poker is a game of variance. In the long run, we will receive the same proportion of AA as we would 22, 55 or 77, but in the short run, it is possible that our card set will be atrocious. Furthermore, it is also possible that even when we have AA, we will lose the hand to a pair of 2's that hit their flop three of a kind. When you don't have a good starting hand, your straights lose to flushes, your KKs meet AAs, and your brelans get beaten by better brelans, you are said to be in a "bad run".

Further details on the "bad run

The bad run is something that happens to 100% of poker players. If you are lucky, these periods will be short and you will get away with it. If you're not so lucky, the bad run periods can last for months or even years. The volume of play you put in will also have an impact. If you play 1000 hands a month, your bad run period could be longer than if you play 2000 hands a day. The important thing is to stay calm in these difficult times.
