Ah, the tilt. If a poker gambler states at no time to have looked over the shadow of an approaching steam – they are either lying or they haven’t been playing very long. This does not imply obviously that every poker player has been on tilt before, a few players have awesome control and take their losses as a hit and keep it at that. To be a great poker player, it is especially critical to treat your wins and your defeats in a similar way – with little emotion. You compete in the match the same way you did after taking a difficult loss as you would after winning a big hand. Most of the poker masters are not charmed by tilting after a bad beat as they are particularly experienced and you really should be to.
You must understand that you can not win every hand you’re in, even if you are the strongest player. Hands that commonly cause people go on tilt are hands that you were the favored or at least believed you were up until you were hit and you burned a large chunk of your bankroll. Bad defeats are bound to happen. Face that reality right now, I’ll say it again – if your brother plays cards, if your parents play cards, if your grandpa enjoys cards – They have all had poor beats sometime. It’s an inevitable outcome of competing in Hold’em, or in reality any type of poker.
After all we are assumingly (nearly all of us) in the game for a single reason – to make money, it will make sense that we will play appropriately to maximize our profit potential. Now let us say you are up one hundred dollars off of a $100 deposit, and you take a big hit in a NL game and your stack is down to $120. You’ve burned eighty dollars in a hand where you should have picked up $200two hundred dollars when you decided to go 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 classic opportunity for a fresh bettor to start tilting. They basically lost too much $$$$ on one round that they should have won and they are angry
