How to control mental attitude?

[vpashuta]

I use headphones, breaks, and cigarettes to control my attitude.. once you notice tilt coming on . STOP! I know it's hard- it's really frickin hard but you will save alot of $ if you can stop yourself from tilting by leaving or taking a break.

Be emotionless. Never play too high or too low. You win a lot of money, settle down, let your heartbeat and pulse slow down before you engage. When you rage, let it subside before you join the felt.

Do I follow my own advice - sometimes, it's hard to be your own coach, realize that too. :captain:

attitude and positive mind always bring positive things, in poker you always have to try to quickly forget any bad play

As others have said, music helps.

One of the things I had done when getting frustrated by losing hands I thought I had a lock on, was to put them into a calculator and see if I really was as strong as I thought. Most times, I was not nearly the lock that I thought I was and had I considered the action more, could have played the hand better. This helped me to change my thinking from, "HOW DO YOU DO THAT YOU ASSTROUT!!" to
" how could I have played that better?"
