Have you ever been playing with somebody that has got under your skin so bad that you will sometimes try to take them out by playing hands you usually wouldn't? curious on everyone's opinion.

Yes. It's called Tilt, when you lose your shit.

I once got mad at the way a player was treating another player at the table. Meaning, even though the player was not being mean to me, I was TILTED that he was being mean to another player. This tilt I experienced led me to play hands against the mean player that I normally would not play.

Hi,

Yes, it's called tilt, as said above.

Work on your mental game leaks, eg when this happens and for example you bust, stop playing immediately and don't go back to playing until you had time for self-reflection.

Also, switch all player interaction off, eg chat off, emojis off, throwables off, etc.

Tilt is a serious problem and will prevent you from progressing in your poker development.

From my personal experience, tilt has been the biggest hurdle for me to overcome in poker, and I'm still learning, working and improving how to minimize tilt after more than 10 years playing online.

Focus on the cards, not the player behavior. There are players actively trying to tilt you. Don't make it easy for them..

Yeah Absolutely! The irony is that they the one who got me lol. I lost all my chips to him but I learned a lot in that kind of situation and helped me to navigate in those kind of people.

Yes, and in these moments they do stupid things...

#11 October 5th, 2020, 11:42 AM

Of course it happens, it means that you missed your poker goals. Focus on your goals which I assume is to win hands.

I try to ignore the chat entries.

I guess over time you develop and learn that patience and remaining calm is essential. I know there are times when you don't follow this and that can be detrimental to your existing game.

It happens, but after that it’s even sweeter when you manage to pronounce them. Bothered by someone sooo bad!! Change ur play

Happends to all i think mentally war sometimes is too hard to beat

#16 October 5th, 2020, 7:33 PM

So far no one has managed to get under my skin and I don't think that would easily happen in online poke reither. I personally wish there would be more chatting while playing. It's kind of so boring just to stare the cards.
