I've discovered that I tilt even when I think I don't. After I take a horrible beat (this time it was trapping an aggressive shortstack. I limped on KK, he pushed in on A5. I call and he doubles up when an ace hits. Before that it was a low board against a raiser. I push in on my pocket pair after reading weakness and he calls and catches a K on the river.. he had AK). I then make an awful decision (normally calling when I am clearly beat).
Basically the bad beat puts me on tilt even though I dont feel angry. I then make a stupid play. Emotionally I feel fine, but my judgement has been affected by the beat.
I guess I have to be EXTRA careful not to tilt after a bad beat. I'll see if I can master this hole in my game.
