Ah, the tilt. If a poker enthusiast claims never to have looked down the barrel of a looming steam – they’re either telling a lie or they have not been competing very long. This doesn’t indicate obviously that every player has gone on steam in the past, a few players have wonderful control and carry their losses as a defeat and leave it at that. To be a strong poker gambler, it is very crucial to appraise your successes and your defeats in a similar way – with no emotion. You play the match in the same manner you did after taking a hard loss like you would after winning a big hand. All poker masters are not enticed by tilting following a horrible defeat as they are incredibly experienced and you must be to.
You have to be aware that you won’t win every hand you are in, even if you are heavily favored. Hands that usually make people go on tilt are hands that you were the favored or at least thought you were until you were rivered and you lost a big chunk of your bankroll. Awful beats are bound to happen. Face that reality right now, I’ll say it once more – if your sister enjoys cards, if your father enjoys cards, if your grandparents enjoy cards – They have all had bad beats sometime. It’s an inevitable outcome of playing Hold’em, or for that matter any kind of poker.
Since we are assumingly (most of us) in the game for one purpose – to acquire a profit, it certainly makes sense that we would gamble accordingly to maximize our profit potential. Now let’s say you are up $100 off of a 100 dollars deposit, and you suffer a big hit in a NL game and your bankroll is down to $120. You have lost $80 in a round where you were certain to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you decided to go all-in on the flop and enjoyed a ten to one edge. And that guy! He bled you dry on the river? – Well stop right there. This is a classic opportunity for a new player to start tilting. They basically lost too much $$$$ on one hand that they should have won and they are aggravated
