Getting 'focused' after steaming a bit..

[Mufus]

Hi!

The last months I have experimented a bit..:

When i steam a bit after a couple of horrible beats I take 5-10 min off poker, grab a nice and cold beer and return to my computer. This has seemed to get me off tilt a bit and give me back the focus on the game. The question is: does anyone else have the same experience? Or is this just my imagination? Could it be just that I fool my self into thinking that it will help, and that the effect it really has is only the placebo effect?
