How do you cope with making a terrible play?
It seems like tilt is most often induced when a player plays his hand in the right way but still loses.
I feel like you can overcome this by realising "that's poker", or that "you made the right play" or whatever.
How do you stop beating yourself up after making the wrong play? I'm actually steaming after not extracting value from a player whose range was really polarised to stack-off hands (i flopped a boat and flat called the flop after he 3bet pf).
Do I say,
"It's 10NL, i'm here to learn and I will learn from this... there's lots more money elsewhere at this stake." ?
Or do I force myself not to play another hand of poker until i've done say, x hours of theory?
The first option seems the obvious choice. But there's an argument for channelling the anger into something constructive!? (So long as it's channelled and not swept aside)
I just don't want to keep thinking about this spot!!!
