<< Maybe I just am in [a] long term losing streak. Rick >>
News flash: When playing a -ev game, the only possible long-term result is a "losing streak!"
<< I seem to consistently lose at a faster rate than [expected]. >>
Define "consistently." If you know the number of trials, expected result, and actual result, you can do a statistical test to find the likelihood of you just being unlucky versus the game not having the ev you thought (either intrinsically or because of suboptimal strategy on your part).
