You get tense when you play poker?.

[888NOX888]

Of course, there is tension and excitement during many situations, for example during difficult hands, when drawing medium hands, realizing that the apponent has a stronger hand, and at the final table too.

I didn’t realize how tense I was playing poker until I gave it up for quite a while. I didn’t realize how negatively it was affecting my anxiety and how much better my mental health now is by choosing not to play. When and if I do return to the tables, I will pay more attention to how it is affecting me and make healthier choices for myself in the future. That’s just me though.

hello
I'm usually annoyed by players who play unnecessarily late

 

[G0930]

Rarely, only first timers..
First ft 15 years ago for example.
Or last year my very first platinum freeroll 😅

I actually get tense quite often with a big pot or while pulling a bluff, but as long as I don't show it no harm no foul. I think what helped me in that regards was my three, unsuccessful, runs for town council. I had to do a lot of speaking in public, and I learned to just concentrate on what I was saying and that I'd be okay.

I was worried once when I was serving in the army and there was an incident at the border, and then I was worried not for myself but for my parents, I thought it would be bad for them if something happened to me, and sitting at home in a warm room with coffee, even if I lose in the coolest tournament, I never worry, it's nothing, it's just lost money that can be earned tomorrow

As with poker theory, many experts have clarified their understanding of the mathematics behind this game. Learning poker and becoming familiar with the odds will ultimately increase your chances of success. The more time you devote to studying the odds in poker, the greater your advantage over your opponents will be. There is no need to strain, you just need to play and enjoy the game. When developing a good strategy for playing poker, it is very important to understand the interaction between poker players, your odds to win and the importance of positions at the table. To be successful in poker, you must be good at distinguishing between good and bad hands.

mostly I try my best not to coz it destroys my ability to play my best games, my best games are mostly in my calmest, however I do get tense sometimes specially in the 3 players left and so, and its not a good thing.

 

[fullclock]

I never get nervous playing poker because I know what to do in every situation. That peace of mind gave me the experience over so many years.

 

[Ketienne]

The more money in play or the closer you get towards the final table, the more tense I am somewhere. But it's more of a positive tension that leads to high concentration.

 

[pokerD]

Yes, there are moments when I'm tense when I play, but I try to stay calm.

 

[AndyB_10]

When I get to that spot where you think you should have a few more chips than you do and it feels a bit do or die

 

[nauffrage]

[German629]

Sometimes I can to be a tense, when I'm playing Poker... But basically I try enjoy Game! The problems enough and in Life... That's all!

 

[redmast]

At the beginning of my poker career, I was very nervous, but over time I became mentally calmer. Yes, there's always excitement at the final table. You begin to weigh the pros and cons very carefully.

 

[juan1579]

I almost always feel that tingling in my belly, but it's nice to feel the emotions when you play poker.

 

[Dimidrol2]

Badbits are so annoying. Without tension, I think few people play especially tournaments.

 

[elchonga]

not
poker usually calms me down and relaxes me
obviously when you lose a good hand out there I get angry
but playing poker is a pleasure

 

[kitchy65]

I'm about as relaxed as a trap door spider if that helps?

 

[Alex Sentsov]

Of course, I rarely relax at all)))

 

[Rmi]

I always try to play as calmly as possible, when things don't go as expected I try to stay calm and keep playing as I have been doing.

 

[dregan]

Over the years, all the excitement of playing poker has gone away. The last time I played in suspense was a long time ago. It was a game on an expensive ticket. I wanted to win at least something for a ticket. It failed. Well, that's okay.

 

[poxerator78]

as when it comes out. I try to play without nerves and hold back my emotions. but when there are bet-beats, then it's hard to hold back

 

[I Live Poker]

I am extremely calm, but I confess that I sometimes get very tense playing, especially at the final table.

at the final table I feel more relaxed, because the game is better and there aren't so many players who don't have the slightest idea what they're doing. What makes me tense is playing with manic and clueless players at the beginning of a tournament.

 

[pavel1111111]

tense not , maybe more focused on the game itself and all the opponents at the table
