After a brutal run of bad cards online, I went over my biggest pots in the last 20K of hands.
I realized, that approximately 25% of my big losses in this period came from tilt calls. Hands where I refused to believe that I got Gutshot again, that my Aces got outflopped again or I talked myself into something like" this bet is too big to be a valuebet, he must be bluffing again", etc. In short, I made plays, I usually know better.

I made...
- calls, I would never advocate to do, if you show me the hand history and tell me some background.
- calls, I would never do, in phases of running normal or good.
- calls, I may have been able to avert, if it was live Poker, where it's more than just one click to blow your stack away.
- calls, I may avoid in future hands using your strategy of [your strategy here]

Now, do people use tricks like wait at least 10 secs. or walk 3 times around your chair or whatever to get yourself under control before you make a big call?
No matter how exotic, please tell me your way to handle it...
