This guy cured my tilt

Bay 101 20-40, I'm on mini-tilt from being up 1 rack instead of 3 and trying to convince myself to leave even though the game was real good.

This guy sitting (temporarily) in front of about a rack worth of chips says after cold-calling 3 bets pf with KJo and not winning the pot, "I only called because I have a lot of chips, that's why I hate having so many chips".

I had a nice little internal lol (oxymoron?) and was knocked right out of tilt. Coincidentally, I cashed out up 2 racks soon after he busted out for the 3rd time.

This would cure my tilt %100 as well, provided he was being completely serious.

He wasn't trying to make a joke, but I'm sure he didn't think through exactly what he was saying.

This for some reason seemed very zen. Is this some sort of koan?

I always buy in big ...... I like having a lot of chips in front of me at the casino. And bankroll preservation is the best cure I personally have for those times tilt enters the equation.

Remind's me of a joke by a BJ dealer named Larry at GC Hinckley (MN) "I hate winning slot jackpots...it takes so long to put the money back in..."
