I say goodbye to money before I start playing. And always go with a predetermined amount of money

control the nerves

First of all you have to understand that you don't always win. even having a good hand, so losing some play that we supposed to win, we got up ... we breathe on, we hold our heads for a while (we let off steam:mad::mad::mad:), and keep trying to make an account that nothing happened ..;):jd4::bawling:

If I'm alone I say a few bad words, I relax and keep playing.

Review the hand history in software such as ICMIZER. See if the software agrees with your decisions. Post a tough spot on the forum and get some feedback.

I try to do some activity I enjoy and not related to poker nor gambling... Go for a walk, play some sport, watch something that makes you laugh.

I express myself loudly with obscene abuse at the whole house and then everything passes, but the neighbors cannot sleep for a long time and wait for the banquet to continue

To each his own. You need to ask yourself what calms you down. For me, beer sometimes helps.

Probably I say to myself that i won't play for a day or more, or tighten my bankroll for the next days / That relaxes my nerves :)

It is best to drop poker for a few minutes to rest, drink some water or do some for a certain period of time, or leave it to play another day if this move greatly affects your nerves.

I calm the nervous system after a loss by just walking around the city, watching a good movie, or going sleep to bed.

Just keep remembering it's only a game, don't let it work you up. If you play long enough you get used to it over the years, you can't win every time you play a game, but you can learn from your mistakes.

It is difficult to calm down or get in a good mood after a bad day of poker ... I try to go for a walk, breathe fresh air and get as far away as possible from that ugly feeling. If it's too late and I have nowhere to go, I go to sleep:(:(:(:(

Take time away from the game. Sometimes all you need is a good break.
