Before you Tilt
Ah, the poker steam. If a poker enthusiast claims at no time to have looked down the barrel of an approaching poker tilt – they’re either telling a lie or they have not been wagering for a long time. This doesn’t infer obviously that every poker player has been on tilt in the past, some people have excellent control and take their losses as a defeat and leave it at that. To be a good poker gambler, it’s very critical to approach your wins and your defeats in a similar way – with no emotion. You compete in the game the same way 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 following an awful loss as they are particularly accomplished and you really should be to.
You need to understand that you will not win each hand you’re in, regardless if you are the strongest player. Hands which normally make people go on tilt are hands that you were the favored or at a minimum thought you were up until you were rivered and you lost a large chunk of your stack. Bad defeats are going to happen. Accept that certainty right now, I will say it once again – if your brother plays cards, if your mother plays cards, if your grandpa enjoys cards – We all have poor defeats at some point. It’s an inevitable outcome of competing in Texas Holdem, or in reality any type of poker.
After all we are assumingly (nearly all of us) in the game for a single reason – to earn a profit, it will make sense that we would gamble accordingly to maximize winnings. Now let us say you are up one hundred dollars off of a $100 deposit, and you take a huge hit in a No Limits game and your bankroll is only has remaining one hundred and twenty dollars. You have lost $80 in a hand where you were certain to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you went all-in on the flop and held a ten to one edge. And that fiend! He banged you out on the river? – Well hold it right there. This is a quintessential opportunity for a fresh player to start tilting. They really just blew too much $$$$ on one round that they should have won and they are agitated
