This has been the biggest obstacle that i havc to overcome...let the game come to you when perhaps your trying to make marginal hands or just took a bad beat...lol

This is where listening to music helps. Pay attention to what's going on at the table (in person or online) but don't obsess over the game.

Overcoming Impatience Online

I know of two ways to overcome patience problems online. The first is to play the speed poker cash-game version if your site has one. the speed of the game let's you not have to be patient since you immediately get another hand when you fold.
If your site does not have speed poker, then I recommend having several games running at once. The speed of playing hands across several tables helped me overcome my impatience problem. I played like 4 tables at a time, then went down to 3 then 2 and now i can play 1 table patiently.

Poker is patience and striking when the opportunity is presented.


Basically, in each tournament there are points to strike, it all depends if you are able to capitalize on gaining a lot of chips.

you have to be patient but you can not get it from the cards, for example AK can beat you in the neighborhood or AQ visi kiker AK what you can do bit aces and play so that

In the league games I've came to the point of having half BB. Let the game take a round on the table and win a somehow good hand, and win the game. Patience is everything, bigger stacks also means higher odds of doubling up.. Stay calm, focus and take it down!

Patience can be tricky since you also want to be aggressive. It can be tough to maintain patience and then flip that switch to be aggressive where it is appropriate and then switch back. On top of that you want to have a controlled aggression and not put yourself into bad situations and play pots that are too big for your hand.

I think music helps, proper sleep and a healthy diet. After that, practice.

It's about having patience, and not being irritated by anyone on the table
