When I get slapped down in a hand, I no longer tilt. I have played long enough to know it happens, in fact real often. Now I just laugh and say to myself, that's Texas Holdem.
Ok LC, Sorry, I was just upset about the game going down after getting so close to the final table after grinding for 2 hrs. Didn't mean to take it out on you.
I have beam playing poker for over 50 years and know the odds by now and the number of outs I have on each hand and play accordingly. But sometimes you just have that feeling you are going to hit your hand, and you do.
I have made huge bets buy mistake playing multiple tables playing online poker. This happens when the tables switch just as you are trying to make a bet. Funny thing is so far I donked out and won each time.
