Hello friends of the community of CardsChat, I would like to know how you work the anxiety while you are playing, especially in those periods of time when you do not have good hands. Thanks for your comments.






I cope with anxiety in the game in different ways, if the game goes in a good tournament and I don’t have a card or do not play at all then I’m very nervous and stop playing for a while to gain strength and my nerves to calm down for further play when I have tournaments in the game every day I’m not very nervous just maybe in another tournament my card will play normally and I will win something or try to win, so don’t get upset about cards and games and you may be lucky in another tournament will play but Well your card, I wish you good luck!

in those time where you dont have good hands it simply doesnt matter to be anxious. I can understand ofcourse it is a natural reaction to be hyped up when we are getting nothing. But its healthier to ignore and make the best out of what we have and lasting the game with our stack

the anxiety in the poker I calm it through the cigarette, since I smoke ... not so much habitually ... but when I am playing I can even get to smoke a pack

Hmmmmm I'd say there are more calls for ambulances for cardiac arrest at the poker tables than the massage parlors lol [emoji16] I don't know where I'd get excited more but I do know where I'd get anxiety more lol

High pressure situation, breathing deep and long breaths ohhh and in massage parlours do the same but without the stress

I personally partake in Cannabis. I suffer from anxiety and ptsd. So this helps me in more ways then one.

Definitely my game is better when I am less anxious. Lately I have been more anxious and have not been playing as well. I think for me it is finding the right balance of caring about the play and yet not being too concerned.

Honestly, I never feel anxiety during the game. For me, poker is a hobby, and therefore I only get positive emotions from the game. If you are anxious, try playing less or playing cheaper tournaments.

I usually listen to music alot , during playing. Although i only play online i feel you. HAve you tried guessing the hands of the other ppl at your Table? This is a good training and distraction and the same time, it helps me alot!

To be frank, I don't get anxiety from poker games, even when cards are horrible. Under those conditions I might throw in some raise chips from position with any two, just to keep my interest up. Good luck.

Hello.
I think the best option in such cases would be meditation. I meditate twice a day and it always helps me cope with negative emotions. I am convinced that meditation is the best way to overcome anxiety.

when I do not have good hands, then I sit and wait for less playable hands with which I could win a big pot and increase my stack.

It's all about having confadence in your game. Not very often do I get anxiety, but when it does happen. 100% of the time is cause I really dont know what to do. So I tag the hand, and review it later.

I try to think of other things I need to do. I also try to have something on the tube that can take my attention when I am on a slow roll or something like that. I know I get horrible anxiety when other players talk to me. I will often leave the room and find another. :( I know it's sad. I can't help to though. Sucks being an introvert.

Hi.
Sometimes, when I play big bets, I also feel anxiety, but this is the feature of any gambling. I think that such anxiety can sometimes bring a pleasure to the player.
Good luck.

I don't give hands more than 10 seconds of thought when they are over. And unlike many players i can't recall hands, good or bad. "Let go and let God" as the saying goes. And i especially don't let the bad things, bad hands, moron players....anything get to me for more than 10 seconds and it is erased from my memory. It's all about the next hand.

I do not understand you about what kind of excitement in question if I sit down to play in order to enjoy the game !!! Well, if a good card does not come for a long time, then I just have to wait so as not to lose !!! I do not like to lose))) always play on the money that you do not mind losing and you will not have any excitement but only pleasure !!!!
