I never did simply because I never got that invested into it or to be more precise I never invested that much money into it so that losing it would cause serious breakdowns.

I used to get mad at certain run outs, but with time that changed as well. Now, if I am getting particularly unlucky I just feel disappointed. Poker is a game of luck (yes skill as well, they are not mutually exclusive). If you want to play, you have to roll with the blows or leave it.

Favorite hobby should treat stress, and if it leads to stress, then you need to get rid of such a hobby.:)

A seizure of nerves, no, but of rage because when I was in a good position I had to lose everything because the rival was able to connect a flash with his bad beat cards, for that reason it made me so angry that I exploded and I couldn't contain it.

There was tilt more than once, but it did not reach a nervous breakdown. I don't know what can be done to cause a nervous breakdown.

Never had nope. Had some nervous moments and some moments I had to gather myself before playing a huge tournament but that wasn't a break down it was nervousness as I was walking into the casino one I plugged a machine and took a few moments I was good

Anyone at some point can be on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Symptoms of the disorder are associated not only with the state of mind, but also with the physical. Often the cause of a nervous breakdown is the general exhaustion of the body. Excessive passion for gadgets, computer games, serials also does not relax the nervous system, but excites it.” Everything is fine with my nervous system.

no, it wasn’t like that, but it was a shame when my strong cards were overdrawn on one round over and over again, for example, when I had a full house or when my quads were moved and this was before the final, then it was a shame:)

No, but sometimes I find it hard to stick to a tournament after some hours. Then I enter the stage where I don't care anymore about the result.

Oh no, definitely never! Of course, sometimes there is a little disappointment after a failure, but it soon passes !!! It's shameless to be angry for a long time if the choice has already been made and it cannot be changed in any way !!!

I have never played with my own money , and therefore there is no reason for me to be upset because of the loss of money.

poker is not the main activity, so there are no nervous breakdowns, the main thing is to control yourself and not flirt.

Getting knocked out with a bad flip in a final table a few times still gets the heart going, but nothing serious yet...

Of course. I think everyone has experienced this. When you have no luck at all, even with AA or KK, you just want to break the computer after losing with such hands.


I apologize for the sincerity:confused:

Serious nervous breakdowns, after an unsuccessful poker tournament, I did not have, only a temporary unpleasant aftertaste.

I've already broken the chair I've kicked the cabinet and
there are times when poker literally takes you out of play yes
I'm not talking about bead beat and you see that events happen in poker that take you seriously

Not really. I've been baffled, amazed and disappointed many times but haven't had a nervous breakdown yet.

Nope, never had a nervous breakdown playing poker. Save other card games for that, never poker though.
