I usually multitask when I'm impatient. Either playing more tables or more often reading/commenting on posts here at Cardschat.

Pay attention to hyper tournaments or Spin & Go tournaments. I think this is the best option for players who are critically lacking in patience.

I believe by asking you know the answer. Regardless of it being online poker is not a game to be rushed. any one can give advice but ultimately its you who has to do something about it
Good luck!!

Patience is very good skill during poker game. If you can't avoid playing fast you should play more hyper turbo tournaments or spin and go when action start from the first minute.

Hi, I have the same problem, but it starts to bother me, after I play more than 8 hours, I understand what is happening from fatigue.

If you think about it, that means it causes problems in your game! Think it’s better for you not to get bored or win money?

I also have this problem, I can't wait and then give up the game as many players do.

There is one way to make yourself warm. Sit and tell yourself - do not rush, do not rush, do not rush.

One way to play slower is to think more carefully about how you will play the hand, thinking about the different decisions you can make, additionally in this way you will also make better decisions and think more critically.

It's probably a problem of tension. You need to become aware of the tension and practice to reduce it.

Just try to be patient and try to have rest before the game, because you need clear mind. Maybe the problem is fatigue and routine, so the solution is meditation with yourself and rest.

^^ This ... if you spend your time paying attention to the rest of the field ... calculating the math you should be doing ....making a plan for your hand etc ... you will not be bored and will have no wasted time ....some won't need to do this of course but if you become bored in between hands this will cure it and you will be focused on a routine to play by .. your routine .. and in so doing an offhand benefit will be that time will pass much more smoothly as well ....

Play a different version of poker. PLO8 or RAZZ? Finding a new game should slow you down.

I like to listen to music or put on a movie in the background during long sessions.. Some may argue that it takes your focus away from the game and makes you play worse, but in my case I use it as an anti-boredom tool to stop me from overplaying hands when I get in that "action" mood

I find myself like this more in cash games than tournaments. If you're addicted to fast paced poker then you're probably better playing zoom on pokerstars. though you may well go broke very quickly.

I once had such a problem too, I was in a hurry to play and I looked too many hands from impatience. To avoid this, I usually turned on the movie in the background or started playing several tournaments at the same time.

I advise you to take a long break and rethink your goals and priorities. Think it is more important for you to,... become a successful player or just play every hand for fun.

Watch a movie or play a game in paralel of playing poker. Having your attention elsewhere will calm your poker play.

Play more than one game at once! Or listen to music or watching TV is good in between hands but dont watch it well playing a hand. Good luck

That can be tough playing online. Have to find ways to relax but stay focused on the game. Everyone has different methods of relaxation. I'll listen to music or just enjoy the silence of the house.
