Ah, the poker tilt. If a poker player claims at no time to have looked down the barrel of an upcoming tilt – they’re either lying or they haven’t been competing long enough. This does not imply of course that everyone has been on tilt before, a handful of people have awesome willpower and carry their losses as a hit and keep it at that. To be a powerful poker player, it is extremely crucial to treat your wins and your defeats in an identical way – with no emotion. You play the match the same way you did following a difficult beat as you would after winning a huge hand. Many of the poker pros are not tempted by tilting following a horrible beat as they are very professional and you should be to.
You need to understand that you cannot win every hand you’re in, regardless if you are the strongest player. Hands that usually make players to go on tilt are hands that you were the favorite or at a minimum believed you were up until you were hit and you lost a huge chunk of your bankroll. Awful losses are going to develop. Embrace that certainty right now, I will say it again – if your siblings play cards, if your mother plays cards, if your grandpa plays cards – We all have bad beats sometime. It’s an inevitable outcome of playing Holdem, or in reality any kind of poker.
Since we are assumingly (nearly all of us) playing poker for one purpose – to earn money, it certainly makes sense that we would gamble accordingly to maximize profits. Now let us say you are up $100 off of a $100 deposit, and you take a large blow in a NL game and your stack is only has remaining one hundred and twenty dollars. You’ve lost eighty dollars in a round where you should have picked up $200two hundred dollars when you went all-in on the flop and held a ten to one advantage. And that fish! He banged you out on the river? – Well stop right here. This is a quintessential choice for a fresh player to start tilting. They just lost too much $$$$ on one hand that they should have won and they’re aggravated
