Idea for this thread came from Jamie's Love and Poker thread and brought up a few good points.
How do you ladies handle tilt?
This may even be a situation where women deal with something (tilt) differently than men?
In my own experience, I find this to be true.
But everyone is different.

Would love you hear how you all handle it. Unfortunately, I cannot offer advice in this regard, as I am still learning how to handle it myself

I don't tilt as much as I used to, but I try to control it by reminding myself that I WANT people to play badly, and as long as I got my money in good, that's all I can do.

One thing I quit doing was posting all my bad beats in the BBV threads in the strat forums. I still post one now and again, but I used to post them over and over, and then I would just dwell on the bad beat instead of moving on to the next hand.

Also try to think if I would play the hand any differently. For instance, I literally just lost KK vs AA AIPF (K OTT), but doesn't phase me at all. Would I fold KK preflop? No I would not.

Usually grab a Starbucks and a bite to eat if I am at the casino (I don't go much). I don't play online anymore, but when I did I would take my dogs for a walk if I was tilting.

If I'm really tilted, I have to get up and do something to physically remove myself from the situation and focus on something completely different. I'll get up and walk to the coffee shop to get myself a tea instead of just ordering one at the table. Take the dog for a walk. Obtain ice cream. Call a friend and not mention my tilt but try to just listen to what's going on with them.

works every time

I karate chopped a lamp once a couple of years ago, but never done anything like that before or since.

I'm just going to watch Amber's avatar until the tilt stops

I feel like I stopped tilting when I started adding more tables. You can't focus on a gross beat when you have to make your next decision - you have no time to dwell or replay the hand again. Also, you can't get as emotionally invested in one tourney when you're spreading your focus a little.

If I'm playing cash live, taking a walk works.

Yea, actually, what I started doing along those same lines Jamie, is stacking my tables instead of tiling them. Which basically prevents me from seeing how I bust. lol. It was pretty funny though last Sunday I went over to Joey Capp's house for Sunday and I was involved in a hand with aces in the SM and on the river I said out loud "ok, I'm not folding" and so he turns and looks at my screen as I call the all-in but then a new screen pops up and he's like "WAIT, What happened???!!!" and I'm like "Well, we'll find out eventually" lol It was pretty funny at the time

This happened to me two hands in a row yesterday. Had KK, all in pre-flop vs AA and lost. Rebought and got KK literally the next hand and someone else had AA again.

Then, when I was on the AA side later, the turn came up a king. If this were a couple months ago, I would've blown my whole bankroll on tilt.

I think good bankroll management might be the key. It takes a lot of stress out of these freak incidents and helps you avoid playing on tilt + moving up on stakes to make back what you lost. That only happened to me before I started a conservative bankroll management plan. Now all I care is that I make the right play. And I'm probably not good enough to fold KK preflop yet even though I highly suspected I was up against AA

Also, I think if you're multi-tabling and cascade/stack the tables, it helps because you don't get to see the result of each hand. That way you can focus on making the correct play vs tilting on bad beats.

My problem isn't with bad beats necessarily. Sometimes I'll have to exclaim "SERIOUSLY!?" but other times it's just sort of, "Meh, happens." What does tilt me, though, is when I fold and really feel like I should call and then my set hits, or whatever. I end up so tilted from that that I move on to make even worse decisions later. This is something I'm still trying to work on getting over.

I'm wondering if it's even possible for womentilt to be different than mantilt, at least for the basic source of same.

Obviously the reasons to tilt might manifest itself differently..

Maybe we have a different kind of tilt when we're losing and we feel like nothing we can have can ever be good. Then we might start folding way too much versus getting excessively aggressive, like men might tend to do.

Long-term I deal with tilt by setting aside time each week for studying and making sure I continue to evolve as a player. Getting drawn out on stings of course, but I try to remember the times that I have gotten lucky when I really needed to, and to channel how happy the player that just sucked out must be. I also remind myself that if the player that got it in good always won then not nearly as many fish would play...

Maybe slightly off topic, but one of the best long-term effects poker has had on me is dealing with life tilt a ton better. Before poker I think I let minor things upset me more than they should have. Since playing, I find it a lot easier to think of the long-termaments.

Another effective way to deal with tilt is to take Percoset.

Okay, I don't take it to deal with tilt, but if my back is giving me a problem and I've taken one or two, I've noticed I'm pretty much untiltable. Side effects FTW?
