Re: Tilter\'s Annonymous. All tilters welcome.
Hi. My name is Carlos and I´m a tilter.
It comes upon a losing streak which involves making second best hands. When the action seems to ALWAYS go you bet, call, bet, call, bet, raise!?
Avoiding to prepare myself mentally to win a hand is what I´m working on. Let´s face it. You are never going to stop losing pots as long as you keep playing.
The tricky part is to condition your mind to forget if you won or lost money in the last hand. You played the best you could and that is what matters from the profit point of view.
KTo 304 times : 0.24 BB/hand
Folded before SD (1.28)*61 = -78,08
Went to SD and won 3.99*44 = 175,56
Went to SD and lost (2.97)*15 = -44,55
Won without SD 1.17*57 = 66,69
I picked out a marginal hand to illustrate a point.
With this shieat i´ve lost 122BB in 76 opportunities and won
242BB the rest.
If I were to lose those 76 times in a row I prolly would go on monkey tilt.
Conversely had I won those other times one after another the feeling I´m playing great would have appeared.
Cliffnote: A pot lost or won is peanuts. Playing them correctly is were the money is.
