Ever think of hot streaks when you play? Let's say luck base games such as slots or roulette? As per definition,
A run of good "luck" or winning hands

I read several comments before, and some lightly attribute it to luck, the truth is not like that.
Guys! if there is a talent for the game, it is that, to differentiate when you are on a streak... in poker, now other games like traditional casino games, yeah! also they exist but that is another story in how to interpret them.
But there, Poker, they do exist, in fact it is widely documented.
If you read your own context well, which I have cited refers to "winning hands", then they are referring to the game of cards, and the opposite exists in its equivalence, you understand me, Downswing and that is where the balance of the player and the talent of bets in general is, you "lower" and "raise" the size of your bet when appropriate.
