Anger Management

Aug 30, 2008 1:50 am Report Abuse

I've recently been having a bad run of cards in my games this week. It's very frustrating when I open the pot from late position with ATs and get called down by the BB with his J6 offsuit and he hits bottom pair to take the hand down. I was wondering what some of you other birdies do when you're running cold to help mellow yourselves out. Lately I've been getting really stressed by some of the bad beats I've been taking and I think I need to find a better way to vent then yelling strings of expletives at the computer when I have JTs, the board is JJ9T by the turn and my opponent pushes at me with KJ and hits a K on the river to take me out... Any suggestions?

try to stay cool, i know what you are talking about, if i have a bad run i sometimes just go do somethingh else jusr relax, i just quit for the rest off the day and hope tommorow won't be the same. It's important to stay cool i kinda flipped once and it costed me alot...

So just stay cool if you running real bad and go do something else the rest of the day if needed

do you have other things that occupy your time..another hobby..children...A Wii???? something that can take your mind off of it. One thing, you can go away but you ALWAYS remember the bad hands...eventually you take them for what they are..part of the game. You know there is a long term goal that will be reached with short term obstacles in the way! Its all in your attitude, so have a good one!!

Well... After I install a new mouse to replace the one I have just smashed, and pulled my chair out of the wall I usually walk away for a few minutes. THen depending on how bad the night has been I will usually get into a low stakes multi table tourney to calm me down some more.....

I think this way "I am going to make other guy happy by giving him my money by playing bad so I must play my best so that my opponent stays angry as well, because when im angry i dont like ppl being happy because of me"

I usually vent by playing some Metallica on Guitar Hero. Either that or take a walk up to the corner store for a beer. If it gets real bad, I take a break for a week or 2.

PUT DOWN THE MONITER, STEP AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER, PUT HOT PEPPER SAUCE ON YOUR TONGUE TO REMIND YOU NOT TO CURSE. (they can't hear you in cyberspace anyway). Go take a long cool shower. Play spider with one suit for the rest of the day.

Surf Railbirds for a while and don't play anymore until you cool down. Bad beats are part of the game. I LIKE POWERING UP MY PLAYSTATION AND PLAYING SOCOM. Blowing things up helps.
