Re: a quick excercise - Describe how you feel and act when you are on Tilt
When I tilt I stop thinking. I tend to bet.
It becomes a blur. Sometimes I don't remember the board. I want to win the pot. I make loose calls.
Sometime I expect to lose. Last month I called the river expecting to lose. My opponent rolled over 5 high, but I expected to loose so much that my cards were in the muck, and the dealer started to push the pot before I realized that I mucked the best hand.
I don't enjoy poker when I tilt. I enjoy analyzing each situation and taking the correct action. Tilt gets in the way of this.
I don't tilt as much when I'm well rested. I don't tilt as often at average tables. I tend to tilt more at crazy tables.
