My emotions during the game can be very different, and in a few minutes everything can change dramatically. I know that you need to control your emotions, not get angry when you lose, be calm and keep yourself under control, but ...... I can't always control my emotions, sometimes they win. However, I'm sure it's part of poker!

It
all depends on how the poker game turns out, I can be extremely happy if I win or very dissected almost depressed for calling him something when I lose

There were cases that I was even mad a couple of years ago, because of the game, I even smashed the mouse against the wall, but now everything is in order, it happens that I can get angry, but this is a trifle, but I already try to control myself :)

Is concentration an emotion? Haha somehow I don’t think it is! Seriously though, I am a pretty “heart-on-my-sleeve” kind of person, but I really try to leave that part of me out of playing poker. Afterwards (I.e. when my session is done) I can have my reactions to various hands, but I try to stay as neutral as possible in game in order to allow my brain the most space for the math/logic! :)

Hello. It is a mix of emotions for me; happy, upset, curious, shouldn't have done that, glad I did that, uhoh, I am on the bubble and I am the lowest, etc.

None at all. I think it’s better for your game to leave emotion out of it. When I play a 2-5 session I bring 2k with me and just forget it’s even my money. If you can put yourself in that mindset than it cuts out any feelings you might get when somebody sucks out on you or anything. I see people all the time get so tilted and angry when they take a bad beat it only makes you hemorrhage money.

Actually I am trying to control my emotions during the game but to tell to truth is very hard for me and quite often I am losing controls when bad beaten. The worst thing when you have cooler and kick off from good tournament.

Hi! I feel a lot of emotions when I play. And I like most of these emotions. Sometimes there is a strong anger, but sometimes joy and elation. The most frequent emotions are excitement, excitement, hope, inspiration, anticipation.

Personally, I usually get excited, although sometimes I get nervous for a while, but rather try to be calm.

I’m usually fairly calm and relaxed, until the final table where it gets really intense for me.

The first sensation that it gives me is pleasure, then later in the tournament I go through different sections of the game itself, of course, such as happiness, uneasiness, nerves and joy.

I try to be fearless, emotionless, cold blooded, aggressive but smart. I'm normally nice, kind, generous, chill personality. but when playing poker I have to condition myself to be total opposite.

I do not play poker for emotion, but for money, I play because I believe I will win money.

At the beginning of my career, I was very worried and afraid of losing or making a wrong move even on tables with virtual chips. Now I have a good sense of patience and over the years the acquired skills have dulled my emotions. I play calmly.

I'm terribly worried when my turn comes up. Especially if you manage to get to the last table. After all, any mistake decreases my stack.

The long grind then all of a sudden rapid beating heartbeats on a monster hand with a ginormous pot and hitting your card on the river! Such a rush.

None

When I play live I am stone cold no emotion. I try not to show any emotion. Win a hand and I might give a small wry grin. Just me.
