A winning poker strategy includes not only minimizing losses but MAXIMIZING wins. While on a hot streak at the poker table, one should attempt to ride that streak to maximize their profits while playing well. Look at what you have going for you while on a hot streak...

In spite of these facts most players will player longer when they are LOSING trying to chase their losses, while playing poor poker in the process. Their shortest session will be the ones where they won and left the table clutching their winnings, while the other players are saying "Wow, I'm glad he left, he was winning every pot". Don't leave the table when you have your opponents on the ropes, deliver the knock-out punch instead.
