good lesson to stay grounded for the long run.

I am FAR from an expert, but it wasn't necessarily a bad idea to play those last two games IF you felt like you had enough of an edge to warrant the plays. Not making a good play (once again, if your process says it's a good play) is just as bad as reaching and making a bad play IMO. If you let a 4-0 start to a day determine whether or not you can make a play, that's a bad approach if you ask me.
The trick (and it's not an easy one to master or we'd all be doing it) is to stick to your principles. If you go 15-0 and you think you have a 2 point edge on the last game of the day and that falls into your "system," then you almost HAVE to play it. Like I said, bypassing a money making situation (as perceived and calculated based on how you cap) is as bad as guessing and making a play on something you don't see you have an advantage.
From what I see, many pay ALL their attention on avoiding the latter and not nearly enough attention on doing the former.
The worst thing you can do is let something like this affect how you go about your business in a negative way. But I know you know that. That's the hard part.
