control the nerves

First of all you have to understand that you don't always win. even having a good hand, so losing some play that we supposed to win, we got up ... we breathe on, we hold our heads for a while (we let off steam:mad::mad::mad:), and keep trying to make an account that nothing happened ..;):jd4::bawling:

If I'm alone I say a few bad words, I relax and keep playing.

Review the hand history in software such as ICMIZER. See if the software agrees with your decisions. Post a tough spot on the forum and get some feedback.

I try to do some activity I enjoy and not related to poker nor gambling... Go for a walk, play some sport, watch something that makes you laugh.

I express myself loudly with obscene abuse at the whole house and then everything passes, but the neighbors cannot sleep for a long time and wait for the banquet to continue

How do you calm down your nervous system after unsuccessful games?
To each his own. You need to ask yourself what calms you down. For me, beer sometimes helps.

Probably I say to myself that i won't play for a day or more, or tighten my bankroll for the next days / That relaxes my nerves :)

It is best to drop poker for a few minutes to rest, drink some water or do some for a certain period of time, or leave it to play another day if this move greatly affects your nerves.

I calm the nervous system after a loss by just walking around the city, watching a good movie, or going sleep to bed.

Just keep remembering it's only a game, don't let it work you up. If you play long enough you get used to it over the years, you can't win every time you play a game, but you can learn from your mistakes.

It is difficult to calm down or get in a good mood after a bad day of poker ... I try to go for a walk, breathe fresh air and get as far away as possible from that ugly feeling. If it's too late and I have nowhere to go, I go to sleep:(:(:(:(
