When I have a bad game, I prefer to lose the worst money and keep the best money in my pocket :)

What you should do will depend on how much you battle with tilt. For me personally, if I lose with a bad beat or cooler I usually have to step away. Sometimes even have to step away for the whole day. If I don't think I am playing anywhere near my best game or don't feel I am in the best mental state of mind I am smart enough to know I shouldn't be playing. Also, when those beats happen I usually don't want to play anymore which is a good thing. I never have to fight with myself if I should quit or not.

If I see that I am not lucky, I just stop playing. A break is the best option in such cases. It is better to relax than spend time and money on a game that will not bring you pleasure.

If you follow your heart you continue, and if you follow your brain you take a break!

When something goes wrong in tournaments, I just play low-cost tournaments until things get better !!!

I prefer to push through a bad beat or switch up the format. Especially in a structured game such as a tourney, you don't have thst luxury so you have to find ways to reframe your play or mindset.

I'm a recreational player and I'm not grinding poker for a leaving but I have 2-3 sessions of 5+ hours / week(MTTs and SNGs) and when I can't even bring my B game at the tables I'm just giving up and take a break... studying and going through the tougher hands I've played, helps me getting back my focus / confidence in my game back... in the end, (IMO), in poker the player that makes the lowest number of mistakes will be the most successful on the long run.

If I had a bad game, then I continue with the others in the session and if the badness continues to them when these games finish too, I leave poker for the next day that I will decide to play.:ciao::wavey:

In case of a bad game, I prefer to take a short break to avoid losing a bankroll

You learn to manage the bank when we hit bottom and lose everything. We learn from mistakes. Personally, I play so as not to lose everything and increase my bank as much as possible.

I play always 3-6 tournaments, so when I lose in one, I always play at least 3 more tournaments, so no time to rest, and when I bust one, don’t have time to be tilted, I accept defeat and move to next. In one day, when I have tume, I can play 10 or more tournaments, sometimes cash in most of them, sometimes don’t cash at all. That’s tournament poker.

I don’t have a lot of addiction to poker and gambling. Therefore, when I lose money, I lose the desire to play for a while.
