In no case, why worry about what you will not return or change?) We must think about the good, based on the mistakes from the past.

I try to take a break, or, in tournaments, reduce the number of hands played until I calm down. It's not a good idea to play when you're not fully focused.

it happens very rarely because I treat the game as entertainment and I don’t worry that I lost, I close it and go to sleep the next day I forget

Sometimes a tilt is inevitable. 🤯 I can't get rid of it right away, but to reduce the tension, I close my eyes and take three deep breaths.

a sip of a good spirit is the best way to fight your fear before a big bet, or call, or raise, or even a fold. Altough after some time you might really start to tilt from side to side lol

You just need to understand that downswings will be regular. Take it easy

Hi,
I used to tilt a lot and very often. I get upset when I loose which is normal.
But now, I make sure I made the right move and that in the long run it's +EV, and if it is not the case it would be a good reason for me to readjust and improve my game.
It is not easy, and when I can't do it abd I get very upset, I just have a break.
Tilt is part of the game that I have to handle.
Gl at the tables

Tilt can harm your game a lot , I used to have many such crazy tilt moments in the past , especially after and beat or a bad result deep in a tourney or in an expensive tourney or sat . But nowadays I am used to bad beats , If I am angry I will leave the cash game table , or sit out for a little time on the tourney poker table

with the slope you can fight only in the right direction then you will always have everything balanced and you do not need to overdo it, you can get into the slope again

Hi.
I don't have it. I prevent tilt by disciplined play and following a bankroll management system.

I already dealt with it a long time ago, today I don't see any inclination anymore. However, I treat my bad plays as a lack of concentration, motivation or study.

I think the best thing you can do in this case is to look for other activities.
If you go in to play again, you'll only go further down the slope. You have to wait a day and sit down to play again. I don't think you can do better.

I confess that it is something difficult for you to deal with and that it takes some time to practice to get good results.

The trigger for tilt is not always connected to poker, it can be personal, professional situations or anything else extra poker.

The first step is to know what is actually happening, and analyze the situation, and act on the focus.

Remember, poker is a mind game, you can know all the theory, but if your head isn't right, it won't progress, or even regress.

Tip:

Meditation first thing in the morning;

Breathing exercises;

Learn to direct focus.

Not often, but when I have it treat it as variance.

When I go on tilt, I play without hope. It's very difficult for me to recover from a tilt. It's disheartening.

I don't struggle with tilt because I don't have it. I have been playing poker for almost 12 years now, and during that time I have learned to play with discipline, control my emotions, and avoid disappointment.

before it was very frequent today not so much luckily and I faced it using the time to recognize where my mistake was in that play in order to know my weakness and improve it

It's hard because tilt makes you want to play more and recover, causing you to end up playing hands you normally wouldn't play.

The ideal would be for you to stop for a while and reassess your strategy, and if that's the case, only return the next day.
