Nice read.

I get tilted after the second beat or when on player keeps messing with me.

One time someone three of my pfr in a row. The next time I pfr some nit 3b me and I 4b shove w/ 99 or something.

Taking breaks is important for me too.
After 500 hands I'm just going through the motions.

Solid post OP.

"I never win flips" --> I'm on tilt for two weeks that's why I dropped a few bi's. My next session I'm going in with a fresh start.

haven´t read it jet but just one question how can you tilt for 8k hands?
if you wrote about that just ignore my question...

Trust me on this one, tilting for 8K hands is easy enough ... hehe.

Good effort, tho I don't agree on all of it. Emotion is not something that sould be surpressed imo (whatever ama claims)

Tilt is like variance something to make friends with and embrace, tho it is hard to explain and get into

This subject is the pooh-bah post that I never wrote I guess.

I'm curious as to your thoughts on this. I read a couple posts at some point that I agree with in regards to emotions and poker. Basically, they said if you are completely emotionally detached from poker you aren't bothered enough by playing poorly, results, losing money, etc. then you won't be as driven to improve. It's all about how you react to the negative emotion. The difference to me is that in the short term it changes your game negatively, but in the long term can be put to productive use.
