What's Your Post-Tilt / Bad Beats Ritual?

YogSothoth · Jan 17, 2021

I don't mean what prevents you from tilting. I mean what do you do to lick your wounds after it happens?

I'm a writer, so when I'm trying to resist decommissioning my laptop, I write (and eat.)

Yours?

Go for a walk and get some air is the best option))

I love just evening walks in the fresh air, in the park, near my house. Usually, such a walk helps me calm down and organize my thoughts.

I get up, take a deep breath, walk a little and come back ready for the next one.

Walks seem popular! I used to live in the Cotswolds (UK) where you could walk for miles in the countryside. Now I live in the city where ten minutes is just about sufferable lol

That's admirable. The other day I had my aces cracked on the river by a set and I quit poker forever (for about five minutes). I need at least a few hours.

I make a prayer to Lovecrafts Outer God, Yog-Sothoth, and everything is getting better

I yell and complain to my brother. Then I take a break to level myself.

Smoke some herb.

I just stop playing, go to the shower and go to bed. Usually, it always helps me. I know that tomorrow, I will have a good chance again, and therefore I do not complicate anything.

Post tilt bad beat ritual

I take a fat rip of chronic. Or turn on Call of Duty and shoot somebody in the face. I suggest you do the same.

after losing a hand I usually don't care much over time we get used to it and stay calm

yezzrr · Jan 18, 2021

Eat, sleep, take notes, and refocus on the present as best as possible

I generally will be found looking under the couch to find the mouse batteries that came out when it hit the wall.

mortimccarthy · Jan 30, 2021

I used to let it effect me like most people throw the phone or remote off something dont stress over it anymore just keep telling myself bad beats happen and luck will be on my side in the next one

Brunokeskara · Jan 31, 2021

dont see, lol

left the front of the screen to see the defeat. If I win, I'll be back in the game, lol

Eat well, pet your beloved cat, and everything will be fine!

tilt off 1 buyin or my stack, whichever comes first. Then that's enough to shock me into being a bit more removed. Take a break or just play regularly again. But I notice I'm much more aggressive when tilted and basically turn into a fun player which can somewhat be profitable actually in some situations. But depending on the hand I'm just like wow I was a part of that (e.g. SF > quads for example) and be like well OK then

noskilluk · Jan 31, 2021

If I'm still in the game after I felt like I've had a bad beat I try to avoid the tilt by playing overly tight for a few hands and take a breath/'forget' about the bad beat...

Otherwise, if I got knocked out, I call it done for the day/night and either sleep or play games to distract myself

bricktoperson · Jan 31, 2021

My ritual is: to play more and lose all my chips.

Im glad you brought it up and i will take the answers to the OP in consideration next time

GeckoAA · Jan 31, 2021

I tend to cuss and fuss for about 2 minutes like a toddler, then a few moments later blood pressure is down and its all rainbows and kittens again, I join another tournament and try again

. The more it happens the quicker I settle down, dust my pants off and get on the horse again.
