Whats your feeling after winning a large field tournaments??. I usually feel unstoppable after that, then couple early exits from future tournaments normally bring me back down to earth
No other feeling like it in the world. I usually feel like I'm on my way up in the world--I'm optimistic like that. I imagine most people (me included) suffer from the classic gambler's fallacy, they probably either think they are the shit an are going to continue to "crush live poker" or they think, on some level, that they're destined to do poorly in the next one because they got so lucky.
On that point I think HOW you won affects your mood a lot as well. No one wants to win a tourney by sucking out continuously.
+1The more you play, the less emotion you experience, regardless of the outcome of the tournament. Euphoria from victory is also a kind of tilt. You have to be calm, and always play your game-A.
