I do realize that I am on Tilt, but that doesn't stop me from making bad betting decisions. I don't play ring games, so I don't have the option of just leaving and coming back later.
Usually it will be something like shoving with AA and then someone with 72 calls and the flop ends up being 772 or something similar. I have the worst luck with AA so I try not to shove anymore. But after something like that happens, I will be tilted for either the rest of the tournament or until I build my stack back up.
Very rarely will I be able to be completely calm after a bad beat or similar, but it does happen sometimes. I just try to not let it bother me and move on. I have had large stacks then lost almost all of it (down to just a couple of blinds), but still made it pretty far into ITM. So for me, its just trying to stay patient and wait for my moment to get my stack back. Don't try to get it in one hand in most circumstances. That's usually where things go bad.
