And just as you modify what you will do based on your hole cards, so should you modify your game based on how the previous 50 hands has gone. Everyone has had a day where they lose every hand they get, It would be foolish to keep losing the maximum instead of realizing you are in the middle of a very bad run and the bigger the hole you dig now. the bigger hole you are going to have to crawl out of when the bad run is over.
So you think you should adjust your playing style because you suspect that you are in the middle of a bad beat period? This is IMHO simply the worst thing you could do. If you have played your hands optimally (which I hope you are at least striving to do) there is no reason to adjust your style because you have been drawn out on the last 50 or 500 hands. Then it is better to just take a break from playing poker completely, because this will otherwise ensure you to generate your own losing streak.
