What makes me anxious in poker are the big tournaments with a big prize my goal to be at least in th money making me play more conservative. One reason that also worries me when I am playing poker is the disconnection on the internet or if for some reason I can play in the middle of a tournament..

For me is waiting when some got hand and think all available time... This is often in pokerstars because many players have multiple table games. I think that multi table playing should be disabled or extra payed

When I am all in and and see the little numbers indicating my chances for winning. And I wait for the cards to come off.

At this point, I don't get nervous about getting rivered, sucked out on, all the bad things. I actually get nervous when I have the made hand. Trying to figure out how to get stacks in rather than accidentally making

For me what revolts me the most in poker is the crazy ones who pay without having anything, and by luck of them, or my bad luck, they win .. lol

To the true poker master, EVERYTHING should make one nervous.

From fear comes alertness, from alertness comes superiority.

The Emperor is only as good as his fear of being backstabbed.

When someone is overly aggressive and raises always preflop. Then suddenly they just call from the button. Nothing has really changed blinds are still the same and stacks are about the same size.
The first thing that pops in my head when I see that, is that they have some big pocket pair.

Gives me chills when they do that.

Small sets. I've been hit set over set enough times that I am always sweating sets even on a dry looking board.

When you know you're about to get shafted by a card.

Every time I go all in makes me most nervous. Especially if I'm near the bubble.

When you play very tight while a player of 72 on preflop goes all-in against AA
And he wins
This is wrong and not fair:(:(:(:(

I'm most nervous when before the flop 2 Ace and after it zero and lose.
I'll tell you what makes me nervous in a live game.

Playing against a Romanian debt collector called Costa. The guy has a bad temper and if you are in a hand with him, you are in a no win situation.

You win the hand , and the guy would like to kill you, and he may be waiting for you outside. So you hardly feel great.

You lose the hand and you lose your chips.

SO you are in a no win situation, which is nasty.

I start to get nervous when the opponent is TT, and on my next hand someone interrupts my TT and starts to get very nervous

Very anger begins when the card does not play in the prize zone at the big tournament, and you take a small prize pool it's very infuriating

There are some situations which I higly don't like.
When I have strong hand but not a monster and two or more guys before me goes all-in. When during the tournament I have to sit out for a few minutes and when I back it turns out that I missed AA and KK.
But the most nervous makes me when I do some stupid move, usually because of boredom. ;)

I think that what makes me nervous when playing poker is .... play all in with a strong hand like AA and some villain calls with a very weak hand and wins me ... that takes away my confidence in my game. ... and leaves me in a state of nerves ...

Getting near the bubble makes me nervous lots of hard work and it could all be for nothing
