Ah, the tilt. If a poker player claims at no time to have looked down the shadow of an approaching steam – they’re either lying or they haven’t been betting long enough. This doesn’t mean of course that everyone has been on steam before, a handful of people have great control and carry their squanderings as a hit and leave it at that. To be a strong poker gambler, it’s absolutely important to approach your successes and your defeats in an identical manner – with no emotion. You participate in the match the same way you did following a tough beat as you would after winning a huge hand. All poker masters are not attracted by tilting following an awful beat as they are very experienced and you should be to.
You have to be aware that you will not win each hand you are in, even if you are heavily favored. Hands which normally cause players to go on tilt are hands that you were the favored or at least thought you were up until you were hit and you burned a large chunk of your stack. Bad defeats are going to happen. Accept that certainty right now, I’ll say it once again – if your sister plays cards, if your parents play cards, if your grandparents enjoy cards – They have all had bad beats at some point. It is an inevitable outcome of playing Texas Hold’em, or really any type of poker.
After all we are assumingly (nearly all of us) playing poker for a single reason – to acquire a profit, it would make sense that we will wager accordingly to maximize winnings. Now let us say you are up one hundred dollars off of a 100 dollars deposit, and you suffer a gigantic hit in a NL game and your stack is at $120. You’ve squandered $80 in a round where you should have picked up $200two hundred dollars when you went all-in on the flop and enjoyed a ten to one advantage. And that fish! He bled you dry on the river? – Well hold it right here. This is a classic opportunity for a brand-new player to start tilting. They basically blew too much $$$$ on one hand that they really should have won and they are angry
