I just try to be absent for several days so as not to psychologically mistreat myself, and when the time is up, I only think about playing my best.
I encourage everyone, there are good and bad times

Drink.

Just kidding

some time I would be very frustrated and if I had more tables it would affect my game. now for me and something normal is lost with winning hands, as well as when you win with weak hands!

if you had the winning hand, how did you lose? you might be in the lead on the flop or turn with a strong hand that has a lot of equity to win, but it isn't the winning until the board completely runs out. it might sound like i'm nit picking with how you phrased things but it's really important to recognize your equity vs your opponent and how future streets can affect those numbers.

That piss me off a lot. After that i am nervous and want to throw my phone. But actually i should just live the game and do something other.

I just think that's how poker is. Many times we remember the hands that we lost, but we do not remember the hands that we won in the same way. So is this wonderful game. GL

Sometimes this happens to every player. But for me personally this is not a problem. All that matters to me is that I make the right decision. If my decisions are right, then in the long run I will have a good result.

I get angry when I lose with a super favorite and if I’m playing other tournaments at the same time, I usually start playing on tilt and lose too, but if it’s only one tournament I just quit poker for the day.

I confirm that it is better to stop playing when you are on tilt. It is only when I am calm and ready to make the right decisions that I start playing again.

In my opinion the best thing you can do is to remind yourself that you want your opponent to call all-in on the turn drawing to two outs on the river.

On the approximately 4% of occasions when they catch their miracle card, you don't mind losing the pot because you know it's a spot where 96% of the time you win.

Pretty sure that learning to understand and appreciate this is a poker rite of passage..

Just remember that this is part of the game for every player and you can't win all hands in which you are favorite. If you follow good bankroll management such bad situations will not hit too hard your bankroll and you should be able to continue playing normally.

i smoke J when something isn't going my way so it goes for that too xD

It happens every day when you play a lot of poker. So the best way to deal with it is to just play another hand and blame the loss on variance. If you have 10 in a row and you still lose, take a break , it's not your day.

Think about the hands you won but shouldn't. Poker Gods giveth and then taketh.

Quite often, many players complain that a poker loss does not leave them. As a rule, microlimit players have time for this; their more experienced and successful comrades will devote more time to working on errors instead of complaints. Most players consider the main reasons for the loss to be anything but their level of play.

this is poker, you can win with a bad hand and lose with a winning hand, the game needs to be treated philosophically

Smoke a big bowl.

Lisent calm music!

When I know that I did everything correctly it is easier to forget than when I should have removed the villain from the hand before or folded.

A good tip is to have a very large volume of hands or to play screens simultaneously, so that you will see that defeat is part of the game and even more, that you are also lucky in impossible hands.

Finally, if nothing goes right, stop playing, read poker books or just hang out with the people you love and have fun until you cool off.

you never forget ... i remember the first time i lost with AA.
This is poker, you can win with a bad hand and lose with a winning hand.
It's terrible Just remember that this is part of the game for every player!

I quit the game and usually watch TV. At the same time, in my head I scroll the annoyance and hope that I’ll be lucky another time

To be honest - I do nothing. Even 99% isnt 100% so I dont really care about bad beats, they just happen sometimes

Its a part of the game, sometime you will lose, you can play your best game, but there are no way to win always...

I prefer to don´t care, the first thing to do are analyze your game to find if there a mistake for your part, when more hands you play, less will care with some badbeats.

But there are some hands you will never forget, it's great, will help to play better. My advice to you are to take a time, avoid the badbeat, prefer to play only when you are not susceptible for tilt.

No need to forget. Just keep playing my game.

Of course there are times when, for ex, you flop a straight and villain improves his set by making a fullhouse and it feels bad. It can tilt some players.
What I do, is take a quite time before each session and remind myself that there are no guarrantees in poker and bad beats happen, you can lose like the example I gave. I just ask the question, did I make the correct dicision? If I did then there is no worries and I move on. If I didn't make the correct dicision and I goofed on then I make sure I don't repeat it.

I am like Nooooo!!! And ill think about it for like 5 minutes or so, shaking my head in discus ) but it is poker and those things are supposed to happen. I just hope I get less of them :O)

"I don't waste my time with it,,,,,i'm too busy lookin good."

Lose "A" winning hand, I rebuy/top-up. Lose 5 big hands in a 30 min session like last night (Ak 4x, and KK 1x) I call it quits for the time being. Some days you are going to do everything right, and still get killed time after time. Its just variance.

You can't win every hand this is just impossible just forget it and play your game

Hi, you know, today I lost with a good hand! I should have won, but apparently the guy with 34 decided otherwise! Usually at such moments I go to watch videos or movies or play games.

Usually I don’t help to forget anything about it. Very angry. I stress. And I enter the tilt. I can not get rid of this habit

When I do what? Oh sry, already forgot

With a winning hand or not, you lose only if you play, so losing is part of the game.

That kind of thing only tends to get to me when I'm already tilted for one reason or another. When I'm not, it's gratifying to me when I lose like that because I can tell myself that I'm still a better player than the person since they had to get lucky to beat me.

This happens several times a day and vice versa, I also win with the worst hand !!! This is part of the game that you need to get used to !!!

How can a winning hand lose , I only have to regain my activity and use the energy from the shock force ...

I am sure we all have played what we "thought was a winning hand" only to get beat by some long shot hand that ended up winning. Best thing to do is just chalk it up to experience and move on.
As that say no need crying over split milk. Forget it and move on

GL all

Don't think to much about it.
Try to analys the situation.
Then get to the other side.
Sometimes it's almost luck

I stop and walk, and think when it's the other way around. When I am the one who wins a lost hand. That is relaxing to keep playing.

Hello, the truth is that I forget quickly because I know that it is part of the game to lose with winning hands, I keep playing as if nothing, when I started playing poker I got angry but the anger does not get you anywhere, so I took breaks to pass the bad moment, you have to take it easy because it is part of the game.

If this happens after a series of tournament losses, I start playing cash. There I can prematurely complete the distribution and get 80-90% of the pot on the flop or turn, and this brings me back to joy))

I try to close the game for that day and start to do something that brings me joy

If you take an especially brutal beat and you're on tilt I would suggest getting up to go to the bathroom and cool off for a few minutes.

That's how poker is lost or won with any hand only some are more likely to win than others ... and lost with AA pair many hands and some crazy man pays me 7-2 and connects 772-227 nothing happens you follow this it's part of the game....

I just go to bed and tuck myself in knowing that poker will be good to me tomorrow

That’s this forum in a nutshell

How did I lose with a winning hand?

Not a winner if you lost with it. Seems simple enough. I can see you losing with a good hand, or the 2nd nut hand.

I don’t understand how you lose a hand with the winning hand. Not “you folded the best hand”

It’s like another thread I saw here today. Guy lost after flopping three aces. The flip gave his opponent a full house because he had pocket jacks.

What did I do wrong?

And there were at least 40 different answers, as if buddy did 40 different things wrong. Do this. Do that. Don’t do this. Don’t do that.

How would anyone who’s legit trying to learn poker actually gain anything from asking a bunch of randoms who have their own opinions and own beliefs on what THEY would do? I used to watch my ex play on AP and I’d cringe at some of her play. And she won more than I did. So how would anything I would do be of any use to someone else who plays hands differently from me?

I get all-in in the next round and go to sleep. Patience with this becomes zero.

I go for a long walk and then go watch a movie.

If it's a really bad beat and I'm still pissed off, I'll pack up the bong and rip away!

There are no initially winning hands in poker, but there are more or less favorites! If you play a lot, you are unlikely to pay attention to the troubles of the bits (this is part of the game)! Well, if this is a very important distribution or a whole series, then I think everyone has their own recipe for how to deal with this. Personally, I take a deep breath 3-4 times and continue the game!
