Downswings

[PokerWolf1]

Interested to see how people handle them? I'm generally not very good at detaching my emotions from the game when on a downswing. I'm quite the tilter. However, one of my new years poker resolutions is to overcome this and become a lot calmer and take breaks or stop and go do something else straight away if the first few games don't go my way. I have been given a few books on poker brain training etc but what do you guys do to forget about that 1 outer or that 9 high that beat your counterfeited pocket pair?

Re: Downswings I put it into perspective. Think of my happy healthy children lying asleep in bed and remember how lucky I am, and that poker's just a game and not important 98% if the time I do that anyway :lol
