Ah, the poker steam. If a poker player claims at no time to have looked down the barrel of a looming steam – they are either telling a lie or they haven’t been gambling for a long time. This doesn’t mean of course that every poker player has been on steam in the past, a handful of players have awesome control and take their losses as a defeat and leave it at that. To be a good poker player, it is extremely crucial to approach your wins and your losses in the same way – with no emotion. You compete in the game in the same manner you did following a difficult loss as you would after winning a huge hand. All poker pros are not attracted by tilting after a horrible beat as they are highly professional and you really should be to.
You must be aware that you cannot win each and every hand you’re in, even if you are the front runner. Hands that usually make players to go on tilt are hands you were the favored or at a minimum believed you were until you were side swiped and you lost a big chunk of your bankroll. Awful beats are going to develop. Accept that reality right now, I will say it once more – if your siblings enjoy cards, if your father plays cards, if your grandparents enjoy cards – We all have bad defeats at some point. It’s an inevitable experience of playing Holdem, or for that matter any kind of poker.
After all we are assumingly (almost all of us) in the game for one reason – to win cash, it certainly makes sense that we would gamble accordingly to maximize profits. Now let’s say you are up one hundred dollars off of a 100 dollars deposit, and you take a big hit in a No Limits game and your bankroll is only has remaining one hundred and twenty dollars. You have squandered $80 in a hand where you were certain to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you went all-in on the flop and held a 10 – 1 advantage. And that amateur! He banged you out on the river? – Well hold it right there. This is a classic opportunity for a brand-new gambler to start tilting. They just lost too much cash on one hand that they should have won and they’re angry
