Dealing with losing and avoiding tilt

[mack848]

Let’s say my long term win rate is 2BB/100 and I play $2/$4.

Session 1, 500 hands, I lose $56
Session 2, 400 hands, I win $32
Session 3, 600 hands, I lose $105

Question is, how much have I won/lost and what was my win rate?



Well, the answer is actually that I won $120 at a rate of 2BB/100.

Once I realized this, I stopped worrying (so much) about short term variance and this has allowed me to play my ‘A’ game a higher proportion of the time. My ‘A’ game may not be as good as I would like, but it’s far better than how I used to play whilst keeping one eye on my session losses and tilting. I love Tiltblockers.
