At what point do you go on tilt?

Recommended Posts

Played in my local casino last night, Nl holdem with £3 buy in for 2 hours. Man i've never seen anything like it talk about bingo for men. Anyway I managed to build up to a decent stack of about 11k with an original starting stack of 1k and was quite happy to sit out the last half hour with that untill no more buy in's were called. Then a guy on my table starts going all in blind every hand trying to double through to a decent stack. Natrually I try to avoid this but when he goes all in blind under the gun and im on BB with KK I have no option. He shows 6,7 diamonds and promptley hits the 3 d's on the flop. Very next hand now with 2 k he puts all his chips on top of his cards again without looking and pronounce's himself all again. This time im big slick suited and someone else has called with 6,6 the fish turns over 7,8 . The flop gives me an ace but he catches runner runner to make 2 pair.:@ Now im tilting and drop down to his level and very next hand go all in against him with a J 5 luckily it was better than his J 3 and and I got all my chips back and managed to stay away from the action the until the rebuys had ended.

Re: At what point do you go on tilt? I don't think I do anymore - sure I shout and curse at the muppets when they outdraw me online or call my reriase shove with A2 to my AQ..... but as to whether I then shove chips for no reason - that doesn't happen anymore been there done that, manage to keep my dummy in my mouth now.... ;) Damo

Re: At what point do you go on tilt? Thing to remember is that you WANT idiotic calls ........ Yeah, sometimes they will outdraw you, but without knowing the result, you have great +ev and in the long run are CERTAIN to benefit.......

Re: At what point do you go on tilt? I generally get wound up over a week and then have to take a couple of days off because I end up doing the same stupid things that are starting to tilt me. I don't think I ever get abusive to anyone online though- not unless they're being particularly obnoxious- to be honest, if someone has a go at me I quite enjoy it (I didn't mean you Milou)

Re: At what point do you go on tilt? The only time I really tilt is in later stages of tourney, if the bad beat/suckout/ill timed bluff leaves me badly short of chips. I wish I could temper it a bit, because the times when I DONT tilt I can quite often get myself back in contention. Strangely I never react as badly in ring games, anyone else find this?

Re: At what point do you go on tilt? just went 6 5 player STT's on BM without hitting the money once tonight. Won 2 from 4 this morning, and 2nd the other two times, thought I could do no wrong. Update Just played one more since last post and won it, so going to bed happy, and just about even for the day. Another chunk towards clearing bonus I suppose
