Ah, the poker tilt. If a poker player states never to have looked down the shadow of an approaching poker tilt – they are either telling a lie or they haven’t been betting long enough. This doesn’t mean obviously that everyone has gone on steam before, some people have great willpower and take their losses as a hit and leave it at that. To be a brilliant poker player, it is very crucial to approach your wins and your losses in a similar manner – with little emotion. You compete in the match in the same manner you did following a difficult beat as you would after winning a big hand. All poker masters are not tempted by tilting after an awful loss as they are highly seasoned and you should be to.
You have to understand that you will not win each hand you’re in, regardless if you are the strongest player. Hands that typically make players to go on tilt are hands you were the favorite or at least thought you were up until you were rivered and you burned a huge chunk of your bankroll. Awful defeats are bound to happen. Accept that fact right now, I’ll say it once more – if your sister plays cards, if your parents play cards, if your grandpa plays cards – They have all had poor losses at some point. It’s an unavoidable effect of playing Hold’em, or really any kind of poker.
After all we are assumingly (nearly all of us) playing poker for a single reason – to earn money, it will make sense that we will gamble appropriately to maximize winnings. Now let us say you are up one hundred dollars off of a $100 deposit, and you take a gigantic hit in a No Limits game and your stack is at $120. You’ve burned $80 in a round where you should have picked up $200two hundred dollars when you went all-in on the flop and had a 10 – 1 edge. And that fiend! He bled you dry on the river? – Well hold it right here. This is a classic choice for a fresh bettor to start tilting. They really just blew too much $$$$ on one hand that they should have won and they’re agitated
