Do you tilt after very unpleasant hand outcomes or bad beats?

I've suffered a lot from this.

It doesn't mean that there are certain actions that don't make me mad, but I learned to quickly absorb that kind of feeling and I'm ready to go.

And also if it wasn't played correctly/optimally too.
I read somewhere recently that a good attribute for poker players is the ability to forget things quickly. Unfortunately I forget where I read that.

No. Sometimes I'm just burning in myself how could I had such a terrible party. But it won't affect my game later on, I wouldn't deserve to be a poker player even a recreational one if I could not move on instant.

Hi.
I always keep my emotions under control. It is not difficult for me because I am a patient player and evaluate my game and my results only in the long term. Overall my results are pretty good and my prospects are clear to me.
Good luck.

I used to take such moments as a bad-bid very painful, but over time I accepted that this is part of poker and I perceive them much more calmly.

Once I broke my mouse... but now I am better in taking it easy. In case of bad beat I stop playing and take a ride on my bicycle. Sometimes it works :)

Hi there. When I first started playing poker, I was nervous all the time. Every time I lost, I got really angry and couldn't stop. But now, after several years of playing and learning, I take it as easy as possible. I also understand that this is part and parcel of the gameplay and there is nothing you can do about it. So when I lose a very important hand, I just drink my tea and continue playing.

It's normal to go into lean mode after being beaten with a junk hand or after a bad beat, we all go through it, what you need to do is try to work on it so it doesn't affect your game and decision making afterward. that move and take into account that it is part of the game and that just as it has happened against you, there are occasions that it has been in your favor. It is difficult but you have to take it in the best way so as not to have major losses. If you feel that you cannot control it, the best thing to do is to take a break and wait for the mood to calm down to continue and obtain better results. But always keep in mind that it can happen to you 1, 2, 3 or more times in a row, so in those cases it is best to stop since it will most likely affect the decision making to enter a boat and therefore it will affect your game.

certainly... I do not think there is any person who does not get angry at least a little ... but that's the game of poker and I think that's why we play it ... for the beauty of pleasure and inconvenience that provokes us ... man do i love this game :)

Sometimes I tilt too much, but I try to fight negative emotions

When I started to play poker I had been in tilt mode so many times after bad beats. It get better after I started to accept that bad beats will always happen in poker, but I can't say that I'm 100% tilt free, but definitely 90% better.

they are terrible because you crash the game and are afraid to play card combos or risk cards that don't have much value

In most cases, no, but when it happens regularly, emotions still take over
