I pushed my laptop from me playing 5nl because i didn't want to punch the screen from anger. But instead i think i messed up the hard drive so it coming back on when i try to turn it off going to the blue screen...

Then i knee it in the back because it making a clicking sound and coming on. Imao well that's my worst tilt sorry of the year. Now im hoping i can get best buy to fix it for free because i bought there geek squad support plus

All over 5nl... You probably butchered the hand in the first place as well.

If I could find time between working, eating, and sleeping I might consider playing online again. I don't know who leaked this fact, but literally everyone at my company seems to know about my online poker history. Someone was designing a deck of cards with our company theme. He came to me straight away and was shocked when I didn't have a deck of cards laying in a draw at my desk. He's one of the designers so he probably spends most of his time playing with himself or searching google for "top 5 ways to pleasure yourself". I have to do real work on the other hand.

People actually destroy valuable hardware over a few bucks?! I mean like I don't know how that's even possible. You should be happy you only lost 5 bucks. There are people that are dying of disease.. People diagnosed with terminal illnesses are facing medical bills that will bankrupt them.

I've had downswings of several thousands in a matter of minutes and I never destroyed objects in my life.

Don't worry. I tend to throw my mouse at the wall or sometimes punch the wall when I get a bad beat. It happens....we lose it lol

But during live poker I don't do anything or say anything when I get a bad beat. I don't want people to know what kind of animal i am hahahaha

Why do you feel the need to post this crap in every thread when everyone knows it's bull****.

You play in a 10c/20c live game ffs

I smashed in my Sony Xperias screen, IMO +ev decision because it was the cheapest thing in the room to actually break and the beat was worth a ****load more than the phone so mehmeh

It sounds like you have a serious problem op. I suggest reading Jared Tendlers The Mental Game of Poker. Most of it is BS but if I were you I would skip right to the chapter titled "What to break when you suffer a beat at micros". In this chapter he outlines the importance of breaking things that belong to others, breaking things that can still be used when broken, holding in the anger and releasing the anger in the form of diarrhea, and using drugs to cope with the fact that you play 5nl.

GL op, I hope you get these tilt issues worked out!
