I've been playing for about a year now, and so far it seems like my biggest leak by far is tilt.
This is far worse when I play live than online. Playing online, it is quite easy to just stop playing when on tilt. When I play tournaments online - I also tend to prefer HORSE simply because when the game switches, it's easier for me to start fresh.
But live is another story. I'm a lousy hold-em player, and prefer omaha hi-lo. Perhaps I've gone to Vegas for the weekend, and waited an hour or two for a spot at the Omaha table. It's just not easy to pack up after a couple of hours if I'm on tilt - say after having my aces full lose to quads in a large pot.
So I take a break, walk around, etc, and come back after a half hour. But, I'm still not playing my A game.
Suggestions? (other than living next to a casino)
