emotional control |

has anyone here gone on a crazy monkey tilt after losing like 2-3 buy ins at a given stake? im just wondering if im the only one. in your opinions...does this mean im not cut out for poker? or it just takes some time to develop the discipline to take your losses? i am a profitable player when i actually control myself...but the minute i lose it, i can potentially tilt off my entire roll. it is a shame to let my emotions get in the way of doing good in poker. thoughts are appreciated!

More times than I care to remember. In most games when you practice and are better than someone you will crush them 100% of the time, in poker you will lose to bad players frequently. It took me a long, long time to get my head around this and realise that losing is part of winning in poker. In fact losing is even more important than winning because the biggest winning players lose far less than anyone else when they are on a bad stretch.
Emotional reaction and tilt control are dependent on the person; for some it wasn't and isn't ever an issue, others take years to learn the necessary disciple and the rest will never develop it or quit before they do so.
No one can tell you if you are cut out for poker, you have to be honest with yourself and decide whether you are capable of developing the discipline needed. |
