Ah, the tilt. If a poker player claims never to have looked over the barrel of an upcoming poker steam – they are either telling a lie or they haven’t been competing very long. This does not mean obviously that each and every one has gone on steam before, some people have awesome control and take their losses as a hit and leave it at that. To be a brilliant poker player, it’s absolutely critical to treat your wins and your defeats in a similar way – with no emotion. You participate in the match in the same manner you did following a difficult beat as you would after winning a great hand. All poker pros are not enticed by tilting following a bad beat as they are incredibly seasoned and you should be to.
You must understand that you cannot win every hand you’re in, even if you are the strongest player. Hands that normally make people go on tilt are hands that you were the favorite or at a minimum believed you were up until you were rivered and you lost a large portion of your bankroll. Awful losses are bound to develop. Accept that reality right now, I will say it once more – if your siblings play cards, if your father plays cards, if your grandparents play cards – They have all had poor losses sometime. It is an inevitable effect of competing in Holdem, or in reality any type of poker.
After all we are assumingly (most of us) playing poker for one purpose – to acquire $$$$, it would make sense that we will wager appropriately to maximize our profit potential. Now let us say you are up $100 off of a 100 dollars deposit, and you suffer a huge blow in a No Limits game and your stack is down to $120. You have burned eighty dollars in a round where you were assured to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you decided to go all-in on the flop and enjoyed a ten to one edge. And that fish! He banged you out on the river? – Well stop right there. This is a quintessential opportunity for a new bettor to begin tilting. They just blew too much $$$$ on one hand that they really should have won and they’re pissed
