What is your own bad habit at poker?

Emily Trott · Sep 6, 2022

When playing live I sometimes start daydreaming. I'll see something in the room or on the television and start thinking about it, then the dealer has to remind me that it is my turn to act. It happens about once each tournament.

While I do play quickly online, I have to keep my cursor off of the buttons so that I don't click the wrong one by accident. Related to this is also not double checking a manually entered bet because I've bet $21,000 when I meant to bet $2100, and vice versa.

Hello😀 My worst habit, sometimes I think for another person the way I would think, well, I forget that not everyone thinks as good as me😀😀😀

It's a bad habit for me to not stick to my strategy, especially at the end of the tournament. It can be said that it has no stamina.

Multitasking when the games are good.

Lately I often catch myself tilting too fast.

Saturation with poker, which leads to lack of motivation which leads to just bad plays. I need to take regular breaks now. My game suffers otherwise.

Trying to win back when you lost a lot.

roberto51 · Sep 7, 2022

Even so, there is still not enough patience in the game, and I'm working on it all the time.

My worst habit in poker is making big calls.

A2020 · Sep 7, 2022

Probably loosing focus at some point and taking bad decisions. Trying to improve on that lately and have been getting better results. Even when I don't play huge amount of tournament, staying focused for sure helps.

Too much smoking

IKE390 · Sep 12, 2022

I bluff a lot and I get very attached to the cards in my hand.

jcxmendes · Sep 12, 2022

my bad habit is to lose concentration as time goes by

Bad habits should be recognized for what they are and then a method should be determined on the best practice to resolve the issue/situation.

mara2259 · Sep 13, 2022

My main problem is that I always start neat and disciplined, the stack grows accordingly. Then, when the game drags on and the card does not go well, the requirements for starting hands are rapidly reduced, it comes to outright garbage. The excuse is my seat at the table, the opportunity to steal the blinds, or a legitimate bluff. No need to say how it all ends.

Spending too much on drinks whilst playing live lol

Lipki3 · Sep 13, 2022

It happens to me that when I lose 4-5 stacks, I start to tilt and lose 5 more.

dzsire · Sep 13, 2022

The worst habit is to start playing on an emotional basis.
This is especially a problem when someone hits you and you try to take revenge. maybe there is nothing worse than that.

efranto2286 · Sep 13, 2022

It's a bad habit not to be patient to play fast and get out of control after a long time playing... I have a hard time stopping and getting up

legend309 · Sep 13, 2022

Without necessarily disclosing anything that can be exploited, what is your own absolute worst habit when playing poker that you know is giving you trouble?

For me, it's the habit of being too eager for button-clicking (to call/fold/raise). I mean, I already thought the situation through during that space of 5 seconds, right? just click already. Nope, turns out, rushed decision. And the reason is that my hand is always on the mouse. Now I had to take my hand away from the mouse so that I give myself a few extra seconds to mull things over a bit more. Like DNegs once moaned to himself, "just take it slow, man..."

How about you?

When I'm tired, I lose focus.

Rijckenborg · Sep 16, 2022

I should stop doing too much other thing than poker when I'm on my desktop.
I should take more note on players.

Rob Hobson · Sep 16, 2022

I have some. But keep it secret.
