Default Examples of Tilt

Hi All:

I am studying the phenomenon of tilt, and I was hoping that you might help me with 2 questions:

1) What are the best examples, in your opinion, of people making terrible decisions after either a) receiving a bad beat or b) letting an opponent get under their skin. If you have information about where I can view these examples, I'd be appreciative.

2) Are there any interviews of people describing how/why they try to put opponents on tilt. I seem to recall an interview with Mike Matusow about this, probably on an ESPN WSOP production. Again, any direction you may give me would be appreciated (either in print or video).

THANKS very much!

TiltMonger

i hate it when the same person beats me, with a combination of outplaying me, outdrawing me, or just betting me out of a hand. this puts me on extreme tilt playing extra hard against that certain opponent, causing me to lose my whole stack.

I find that the big thing that puts me on tilt are when obviously bad players make obviously bad moves and outdraw me huge. I've probably been beaten by 2 outers or less over 500 times during the last 2 months and it infuriates me when I'm stuck.

I love how Tony G gives lessens about poker after moving all in with A2s, where he only gets called by hands that crush him or are slight dogs. And then explains how bad calling off with KJ there is, having called off with, what, J4o, or some such in a televised WPT event to throw away a massive chip lead when HU.
