What's the best way to deal with/eliminate loss aversion? I've gotten to a point where I accept variance pretty well. When I'm running bad, I don't really let it affect me. Then it will suddenly hit me that the money I lost is money that I actually don't have anymore which triggers an emotional response to loss.

A lot of times it happens after the session and I just feel horrible for some time afterwards, or sometimes it happens during the session and I start to get tilted. I know it's stupid. I can feel that I played the best poker I've ever played and still feel this silly emotional response to loss.

And it's not even real money I can spend. I actually don't even have any way to cash it out if i wanted to, and I grinded up my current bankroll from $20 so it's not even money I ever actually had. It's all money I made from poker in the first place... so it might as well be game points. And yet I still feel this stupid loss aversion...

Why do you think like that?

emotional responses don't have logical reasons, so your question makes no sense.

No, but they have triggers. There is something that makes you feel like that.
