Ah, the tilt. If a poker gambler claims never to have stared faced over the barrel of an upcoming tilt – they are either lying or they have not been gambling long enough. This does not indicate of course that everyone has been on tilt before, a number of people have great willpower and carry their losses as a defeat and leave it at that. To be a powerful poker player, it is extremely critical to approach your wins and your defeats in the same way – with no emotion. You participate in the match in the same manner you did after taking a tough beat as you would after winning a great hand. Many of the poker pros are not tempted by tilting after an awful beat as they are incredibly professional and you should be to.
You have to be certain that you won’t win each hand you’re in, regardless if you are strongly favored. Hands which typically cause players to go on tilt are hands you were the leading choice or at a minimum thought you were until you were hit and you squandered a gigantic chunk of your bankroll. Awful defeats are bound to develop. Accept that reality right now, I will say it once again – if your brother enjoys cards, if your father enjoys cards, if your grandparents enjoy cards – They have all had poor defeats sometime. It’s an inevitable outcome of competing in Texas Holdem, or for that matter any kind of poker.
Seeing as we are assumingly (almost all of us) playing poker for one reason – to make $$$$, it certainly makes sense that we would gamble accordingly to maximize profits. Now let us say you are up $100 off of a $100 deposit, and you take a gigantic blow in a NL game and your bankroll is only has remaining one hundred and twenty dollars. You have burned eighty dollars in a round where you should have picked up $200two hundred dollars when you went all-in on the flop and enjoyed a ten to one advantage. And that fish! He bled you dry on the river? – Well hold it right here. This is a classic choice for a fresh gambler to start tilting. They really just lost too much $$$$ on one hand that they should have won and they are agitated
