dealing with tilt, some quick thoughts

After yesterday I'm now going to read and re-read this post before every session!

First time I've ever gone on really bad tilt after some monster suck outs. Really disappointed in myself as I've never let myself go on bad tilt before. Obviously sometimes past hands or history will effect my play but I've always been good at getting up and walking away for a few mins when I notice that happening. Have never sat there and started doing stupid things because "it's my turn to suck out!" lol Thought that was one thing I had a good grasp on but you live and learn and are often humbled in the process!

Beating my chest and shouting helps me cool down the tilt, heh. Also the smiling and laughing at stupid stuff is golden.

Sometimes I also imagine a poker pro is watching me play/railing me. Its really hard to do something really stupid if you feel a good poker player is watching you.
