I have had problems with tilt as well and during tilt I turn into loose aggressive maniac type of player [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I have noticed that when tilting I really don't give much thought to my decisions to call/bet/raise/fold/check, but rather take the action based on impulses. This of course leads to wrong decisions.

The way I plan to improve this is to force my self to think rationally also when running bad. To do this I need to improve the visibility of my decision making (this is something Alan N. Schoonmaker talked in his book if I remember correctly).

In practice I have decided to record my next sessions (e.g. with camtasia) and also record some commentary on why I played the hands the way I played them (something like in stoxtrader vidoes).

Hopefully this leads to following things:
i) The role of the commentor helps me to control my emotions
ii) it's easier for me review the hands afterwards when I can see the thinking behind my decisions
iii) this enables me to focus on specific hand and how to play it rather than the emotions caused by bad beats

After running bad it's hard for me to review my play and admit mistakes. I think this should also make the reviewing process easier and give better holistic view on my play.

So, this might something to try out...
