Hello friends, what are the behaviors that most compromise their profits at the poker table? Playing short time already realize that some attitudes are bad. I would like you to make a list and argue on it.

1)Reprove a bad play or try to teach a bad player on a bad move.

The reasons are obvious, you do not want the fish have consciousness of nonsense they are doing. The question is, how best behavior in this situation? Be silent, change the subject?

Tilting is probably the biggest culprit in long tournaments. You can easily lose your chill and start making mistakes. Like calling stupid bets or betting on weak hands.

When someone starts calling me a fish, or telling me to suck a d**k i keep a close eye on the way they are playing and wait for my chance to strike. Chances are they will try to bullshit their way into stealing more pots, they lose patience and want to start winning more hands even if they dont have the cards to do so.

Drinking alcohol is up towards the top of that list.

Down further is playing too long. I've made horrendous mistakes between 12 and 16 hours of play. Brain just gets mushy. I try to limit to 10 hours now.

when you loose a big hand and you get all in in the next one, tilting and when you KO someone and he starts to provocate you then if youre beginner you have to turn off chat and play normally, MTTs can last for many hours you got to stay focused and if you see that you can be focused dont play them.
Avoid bad cards and bad positions make notes to the players!

sometimes very rarely i like to be rude in chat , bla bla and stuff ,doing stupid raises and even calls try to provoke players by their country .
after few lucky stupid actions , example 9-8 suited mid position all-in table folds and next hand J10 before SB shove again table folds third hand 67off i fold next hand im BB i have AK i shove again .......while i wait for big cards, i start chating again bla bla,.sometimes it works. ppl think he's been dickin arround to much must punish him or he's a fish with AJ'Q'10 or KJ , i have 10s or KK ,AK , AA :) but i dont recommend this.

As mentioned before, Tilt is probably the biggest behaviorleak out there..
Keep an eye on people tilting after example loosing a big pot for heaps of their chipstack, or people facing a bad beat.
Also, if a player has just won a real big pot, they're more than likely to fold the next couple hands than not. So keep that in mind as well when you are looking to steal some of the blinds out there :)

Good luck!

Playing distracted. If you are rushed for time, pissed at someone and you are fuming over it or with just distractions around you. If you can not give 100% attention to the game and other players then you should not be playing.

Keeping your concentration. lots of players tend to lose theirs after a few hours at the table.
