Everyone seems to have gone on tilt on more than one occassion. I know I have and probably will again. I hear quite a bit about folks who go on tilt and spew forth their roll like an ATM with a no card required glitch. I find myself tilting, but usually only for extremely short periods.
I have two versions of tilting (That I have noticed). One is what I call the donkey-tilt. This is usually caused by me doing something extremely stupid (donkey) which causes me to lose a significant portion of my stack, then going on tilt for about two hands or so, spewing a few more chips toward anyone lucky enough to be in the next couple of hands. I also go on monster-tilt. Which are short bursts of tilt caused by losing with a monster hand. Same thing as donkey-tilt except this time I didn't do anything wrong. I played the hand perfectly (I think) and end up losing to someone with a bigger hand (full house vs full house, straight flush vs straight flush, etc).
I've seen people go on tilt who were up 5x or more than what they bought in at. They then proceed to spew it all away, rebuy and spew some more, and then do it again. I've never done that myself (probably will in the future), but always wondered what caused such long term tilt rage. Does everyone always tilt the same? Either always tilting for long priods of time, or for short priods of time, or does it vary? Are there certain things that a player can do to lessen the period in which a player goes on tilt, or even prevent it all together?
