After a bad beat, I might vape more or have some chocolate.

wow i am not the only one how does it :))) ,,huyy :))..but at least i dont drink :)
Very cool, and it's good....I have nothing to brag about because most of the time when a game starts that I'm waiting for maybe I'm drunk as hell 🤬🥺 I only have some traces of my passion left for cards.
Now I'm seriously preparing for the vip game, I can last another five hours.

I don't smoke, so that's out of the question, but if I feel like I'm on tilt, I'll stop playing and go for a walk or bike ride instead.

I've already celebrated three years without cigarettes, I can't even remember if they helped me during the game.

I used to smoke a lot too. But after a heart attack, I gave it up. I gamble, but I can't smoke anymore. It's a pity that it took a heart attack for me to quit.

I think that yes, when I'm losing I like to smoke and drink a beer, that relaxes me and makes me play better.

Many people think that smoking calms their nerves. In my opinion this is an illusion. There is also an illusion that when you quit smoking, you lose something. This is not true. By quitting smoking you gain a lot - time, health, save your money, and stop lining the pockets of the owners of tobacco corporations.

Smoking when tilted is not a good idea. While some may feel that smoking helps calm nerves or reduce stress in the moment, it often acts as a temporary distraction rather than a solution to the root cause of tilt. Smoking can impair focus and decision-making, potentially worsening your gameplay. If you’re tilted, it's better to take a break, clear your mind, and return to the game with a fresh perspective. Developing healthy coping mechanisms like deep breathing or stepping away from the table is more beneficial than relying on substances like tobacco or cannabis.

I used to do just like you, the more I tilted the more I smoked cigarettes.
But I have quit 5 years ago, and I am glad. I am still having a problem with tilting.
To the person that suggested a stress ball, thank you, I think I should get one.

I used to love smoking... Then I realized it was superfluous... I tried to quit many times, but it didn't work out... And now, after more than 30 years of smoking, I motivated myself and the problem is gone) I still remember a night, a tournament, an ashtray full of smelly cigarette butts, a room full of smoke and sour taste in my mouth from excessive smoking... and the fear that they will run out... And then smoking cigarette butts from an ashtray and the bitterness of nicotine on your lips, which you're trying to wipe off with your hand...

Yes, sometimes, I usually do not smoke more than one cigarette per two hours, but in some cash tables or tournaments where I may spend more than four hours and the competition is strong, I may smoke more than usual. Unfortunately, sometimes I do not feel like I am smoking until after The cigarette ends😅

I don't smoke and I don't recommend it to you. When I started playing, I gave up this bad habit.

I have been smoking for over 25 years.
I don't tilt because I never spend more than I can afford on the game. Poker is fun for me, and smoking is a habit that is killing me.
