Default Re: TILT

I always tilt aggressively when I do.

I started realizing that I tend to tilt fairly sublty after being up for more than 24 hours. Not eating doesn't help much either.

At least it's easy to keep track of!

I'm an aggressive player anyway, and when I tilt, this tendency is more pronounced. The problem seems to be with how I read other people's willingness or lack thereof to lay down to my aggression despite their cards.

For example, I moved all in to a guy with AQ while holding QJ in a live NL cash game with smallish stacks, pretty much knowing he had me beat (not that beat). I thought I could make him lay it down PF.

I play with him quite a bit, and should have known better than that. In fact, I did know better, and was simply on tilt. I got caught up in my own table image.

Oh well, I'll just have to quit sooner next time.

Dov

Aggression! It IS more fun! But I've got a system going where instead of tilting I'll just throw my laptop against the wall, stomp up and down on it a few times, then hurl it out a window.

It works! After I do that, no more tilt.

Default Re: TILT

I tilt agg.

Partially cause I've come off a bad beat and feel like going nuts.

However, I refrain from tilting now. I get this foggy feelin in my head, the same feelin you get before a fight. When that comes along, I immediatly sit out and swing the golf club at inanimate objects for a while.
