I have a number in my head and f I lose more than that, I go home for the day. While not leaving a winning shoe, I will leave after a shoe ends because I am down more than $1k for my spread ($25-$200/$300 for Dd/6d).

Sleep and time to review makes a big difference.
I also agree that psychology plays more important role than naked math here. If I feel emotionally low about a casino, that will effect my counting skills as well. It is true that cards are the same and rules haven't changed, but human emotions are not logical and it is proven that they are more powerful than logical brain when it comes to make decisions
Sleep and meditation are needed most on those times!
