After great losses and offensive Beth bits I too freak out, quarrel with family and problems at work!!! So, I removed the poker runs 5 days and I'm back in the game!!!)))))Just need time to cool down and to take into account errors of losses!!

We have to minimize our loss.

When youre stress, your not playing you zone.

Have to stay away from poker for a while and come back when its gone.

music in the background helps, look at that game micro stack and sometimes unavoidable stress due to various factors within the game.

one thing and right when I'm with personal problems, not play because I get to extreme stress by not getting consentrar me as you like, and sometimes want to blame the poker when I was guilty myself for entering the table without being prepared psychologically at that time.

Also watching your game and being sure to not play at a wreckless limit for you. Meaning playing at a stakes game that may be too much will cause the stress as well. Good luck to you

I take my stress outside the house, walk around the community buy something from the convenient store or window shop in the nearest music store, anything that will get youboff from the idea of losing may help a lot! :)

If your stressed about poker itself, best thing to do is to just plug away at your leaks... Analyze your game and others games, take the pressure off your game and watch others stress with their money

Unless you are making a good income playing poker, it sounds like you should give it a rest. Casual and low stakes play should not be stressful, but relaxing and fun. If your stressed because of substantial losses, you have to know when to quit.

If you do make a living or supplement your living with poker, chill out dude, you're doing fine!

Stress can be a big detriment to your play. So go out for a couple of hours and distract this negative emotions

Very rarely get stressed, always want to do well, but it is just a game remember unless your a pro or think you are, then I could see stress entering the equation!

You should hear some good music, eat something. I mostly cook, then eat it to release stress. When you feel stressed you should leave game for some time, don't get too much focused on gaming.

we can't have stress playing poker, we have to play with pleasure taking in mind that sometimes the tournaments can be boring (specially the tournaments that they are not turbo). if you are stressed when you play, hardly you will get good results.

Helps me relieve stress my cat, just a couple of minutes and Pat becomes easier. But if this does not help then overcome the drastic measures of 50 times.

When Poker puts my stress levels on the rise; I try to return to my first vice Alcohol.. It's just a game and remember if you weren't losing, you would simply be spending your dollars on something else. If you think u can profit than keep playing, but if you don't take the stress off and just play for fun.. My personal experience has been when you're stressing the game you play worse and make the wrong move.. Bite down and don't let the variance ruin your game!
