first of all i would like to start off by saying thanks for the oppertunity and second i would like to quote a passege from a book that i read alot when im haveing a bad day hope its ok ... this is not my words (mike caro fundamental secrets) stated caro's law of least tilt
among similarly skilled players the player with the most discipline is the favorite...
you know what going on tilt means ??
it means losing your discipline and letting youemotions dictate your
poker decisions!!!!!!!!!!!!! mike caro
ok now i am no poker god but i do love the game and for me its what or how i should say the other people are playing.. say im playing tight aggressive
i lose to a good call but a bad suckout i think dangit why would they call with that crap actually its worse then that but low key here lol and i have to stop and think this why should my pocket aces win !!! after all there aces right wrong 52 cards in a deck and thats not counting the jokers in the deck or on the table ...
anyway 52 is the number most important but don't forget how many people at the table 9 players 52 cards hmmmm lets think about this 9 players 52 cards so at the beginning of each hand there is 18 cards from the deck that you can't see and if you have any real good or moderate players on the table they have the power to fold ace rag or low pocket pair you just never know ... I for one have never since i have been playing poker folded an AAand some times i have tryid to figure it out but the point here is AA 9 players 18 cards when you look at those numbers you have lots of outs but not gareented to win all the time but the suck out puts me on tilt only cause i go all in first mistake but can you fold aa if you don't go all in after the flop so i put myself on tilt more then the other people cause somtimes i don't have the power or strengh to fold a monster so thats how i deal with it by sopping and reviewing how in that position can i play it better sometimes you can somtimes you can't ...and if i have any chips left i try to go back to tight agressive if the blinds let me and get a few chips back .. and sometimes i shut my comp off go get a cig calm down and read my book again and play!!!! not sure if this is what you were looking for but just my thoughts but if i get the chance my ps name is fulltilting1 <<<<lol and i would like to play you heads up as i have seen you play a few time and think i could learn alot from you thnx again JACKWILDCARD!!!! gl on the felts....
