Ah, the tilt. If a poker enthusiast states never to have looked over the shadow of an approaching tilt – they are either telling a lie or they haven’t been competing very long. This does not imply of course that each and every one has gone on tilt in the past, a handful of people have great willpower and carry their squanderings as a defeat and leave it at that. To be a powerful poker gambler, it is especially important to treat your successes and your losses in the same manner – with no emotion. You compete in the match in the same manner you did after taking a tough beat as you would after winning a big hand. All poker masters are not enticed by tilting after an awful defeat as they are very experienced and you should be to.
You need to understand that you will not win every hand you are in, even if you are the strongest player. Hands that frequently make people go on tilt are hands you were the favorite or at a minimum believed you were up until you were side swiped and you burned a big portion of your stack. Bad defeats are bound to develop. Embrace that reality right now, I’ll say it once again – if your brother plays cards, if your father enjoys cards, if your grandpa plays cards – They have all had bad beats at some point. It is an unavoidable experience of competing in Holdem, or in reality any kind of poker.
After all we are assumingly (almost all of us) playing poker for one reason – to earn money, it certainly makes sense that we would bet appropriately to maximize our profit potential. Now let’s say you are up $100 off of a $100 deposit, and you take a huge hit in a No Limits game and your bankroll is down to one hundred and twenty dollars. You have burned eighty dollars in a hand where you were certain to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you decided to go all-in on the flop and enjoyed a 10 – 1 edge. And that fiend! He sucked you out on the river? – Well stop right there. This is a classic opportunity for a brand-new bettor to start tilting. They basically blew too much money on one hand that they really should have won and they are pissed
