I sometimes when playing donks who just check call check call get really angry and just go pure aggression and crush them.

Im tilting and playing totally different but for someone reason it wins.

it's called getting lucky.

it's defo not something to think about, or look for. if you are tilting and winning you are getting lucky. simples.

exactly, I will think I can make everyone fold every hand and keep pulling in big pots with cbets and end up all in bluffing (not so much anymore atleast)

What? You get tilted when you WIN?

Tilt is my biggest leak atm. I honestly believe that tilt control, discipline and patience is what separates long term winners from losers/break even players. At the micros the strategy/theory's/concepts are so easy to learn, honestly 99% of people are capable of learning how to beat micro stakes, the hard part is not tilting and putting in the hours.

Winners tilt is a huge problem for me. If I'm losing I don't get angry but just play on and try to grind out a winning session. If I get a couple of buyins up early I get the urge to quit while I'm ahead rather than try to maximise my winnings.

My winning tilt = playing scared money and wanting to quit playing.
