It soon becomes apparent that poker's an emotional game - 20% game, 80% emotion.
Listening to bad beat stories, all too often there's an emotional factor.
So what makes you tilt? How do you manage it?
Here's a few to get us started:
[/LIST]
[*]sex chat between players(!)
[*]being a nit
[*]tilting yourself with weak ass plays
[*]being busted off 1st nuts by bluffs/2nd or 3rd nuts
[*]being stepped on/reraised insanely every time you raise in
[/LIST]
This poster is learning to walk away when:
- Feeling baaaaad
- Feeling the temptation to go all-in to reassert my fragile sense of self-respect
- Losing 2 stacks
- Or walking away form table after losing 40% stack at table (bad image often leads to tilt for me...)
(PS - some good podcasts on 'Cash Plays', on iTunes on managing this topic).
