Ah, the poker tilt. If a poker gambler claims at no time to have stared faced down the barrel of a looming tilt – they are either telling a lie or they haven’t been gambling for a long time. This doesn’t indicate of course that every poker player has been on steam before, a few players have wonderful control and take their losses as a loss and leave it at that. To be a great poker player, it’s very critical to appraise your wins and your defeats in the same way – with no emotion. You play the game in the same manner you did following a difficult beat like you would after winning a big hand. Most of the poker pros are not charmed by tilting after an awful beat as they are highly seasoned and you really should be to.
You need to understand that you cannot win each and every hand you’re in, even if you are strongly favored. Hands which typically make players to go on tilt are hands that you were the leading choice or at least thought you were until you were rivered and you lost a large chunk of your bankroll. Awful losses are bound to happen. Accept that fact right now, I’ll say it once again – if your brother enjoys cards, if your parents play cards, if your grandma plays cards – They have all had poor beats sometime. It is an unavoidable outcome of competing in Texas Holdem, or in reality any type of poker.
Seeing as we are assumingly (most of us) in the game for a single reason – to win money, it certainly makes sense that we would wager accordingly to maximize our profit potential. Now let’s say you are up $100 off of a $100 deposit, and you suffer a huge blow in a NL game and your stack is only has remaining $120. You’ve lost $80 in a hand where you were assured to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you went all-in on the flop and had a ten to one edge. And that amateur! He banged you out on the river? – Well stop right here. This is a quintessential opportunity for a brand-new player to start tilting. They just burned too much $$$$ on one hand that they really should have won and they’re angry
