If you are tilting and know it, but just have to play poker why don't you play Play money. it is free, you know you aren't playing right anyway. Not playing is probably best, but you can do stupid stuff on the play money tables and maybe get over the tilt. Shove with 72o or try to bluff with 93 whatever.

I've been a bad run lately and started playing scrabble online. It's not poker but it requires strategy and concentration. If you don't like scrabble try chess or something else that keeps your mind sharp.

MSN has a bunch of fun games, including hold em'. Lately I've been playing a version/level of Spades called "whiz"; everyone has to bet nil, or the number of spades in their hand.

When I'm alone, bored and there's nothing to do I often grab a box of Kleenex, put on a Baywatch DVD, shuffle into a comfortable position on the sofa and...er...I don't think you really want to know any more.

Try playing backgammon. Can be a nice break from poker.

But don't try to bluff!:D

I firmly believe that the gods invented Need For Speed games specifically for this circumstance *nods*

If u have any video game systems, buy the W.S.O.P games, they have for the ps2, xbox, or xbox 360 depends on which system you own, all 3 are there just to pass the time, or like I do, watch anime
