Meh, it happens. What are you going to do? Start folding AA pre-flop? That's not a good play.
If you can separate yourself from the result of the hand, and instead look at the play/move you made, then that helps you be more calm for when you get unlucky. And that takes a long time to get good at, and hopefully you don't tilt away too much of your bankroll in the process.

topper39 said:This is very inspirating. But anyway, It's so hard to manage emotions, especially negative ones. Guess the best way to avoid tilt would be to play all the way without them, but I'm not a robot.
Everytime I'm tilted I really loosen up and start chasing it back again and that's usually tragedy for my Broll.
I'm trying to work on this very hard as I want to be winning player veeery bad, actually there was a times when I already was. But somehow I tilted out all the roll which I was making for a long time everytime and it usually taked just a few really bad sessions.
I trying to work on this issue very hard. I even started to play hyper-turbo HUSNGs ,which are the games with maybe the biggest variation available, just to work on it. Have to say, that not very successfully so far.
Listening music is a good idea, and thank you for that recommendation, I'll definitely put it on my new playlist!:icon_thum

floridapoker said:Well what I usually do is start pushing all in repeatedly preflop, get my money in bad and then lose. Lol in all seriousness if you're a smoker go smoke. If you're not a smoker I suppose go for a nice long walk. If I can't leave for a long time I will pull my chair back from the table 4 feet stand up and walk around it in a circle 3 times in a counterclockwise motion. It will make everyone stare at you though 🙁
