Nope. It is no solution for tilt. It just helps survive extreme tilt. But as fast as doomdy is switching here from donk ti running good and back to donk, he just do not have the samplesize to really judge it. Some borderline calls dont make a donkplay.

Or simply switsch the poker room. People at pkr may have noticed the way he plays and use this knowlege against him. Time for another no deposit offer.

If you can't concentrate, don't play! If you are multitabling, decrease the number of tables. If you are surfing the web or checking your mail, stop doing so while you play poker.

i think that you should go to ongame and play 10-20 sittandgos at the same time if you can play with 10% roi you get 40$-50$/hour wage!!! because ongame bonus is 62,5% rakeback

I playin much better now, playin abc poker sit n go. Tight in beginning, loose up when blinds get higher... My weakest point was playing too much hands when blinds are low. Its hard to fold 99 TT AQ AJ KQ in beginning but its better. Now i must stay with my abc poker and gogoggoogogogoogoggo

Are you playing normal SnGs or do you still the double or nothing versions? For normal play folding these hands seems to be a bit to tight, espacially in late position.

I still play doubles not regular so your right Doubles are a new type of sit n gos i see so many mistakes also from really good regular players... There arent any books about it yet so at bubble time players make terrible decision such as raising to get people out of the hand while last player is allready allin, i see it every day....

If it makes you feel any better. I can say you are not alone. Lately my bankroll have increased with almost 50 %. I having the badest downswing in my poker life. Ive tried everything. taking a a break from poker. Playing lower limits. Nothing seem to help. The funny thing is i havent changed anything in my game plan. I still Play the strict rules i have set up. But Now i dont seem to catch a break. If i got KK a A hit the flop. If i got 50 outs of course the one of two cards that dont help me comes. Hopefully i got some cash left when the downswing turns

Every downswing ends some day.. Also every upswing ends some day...
So keep playin your abc poker and do good bankrollmanagement and it soon gets better

Posted by jmixmac: Bankroll management is the most important, mainly beacuse it is a solution for extreme tilt.
I truelly can say i never tilt. I had some badbeats had some downswings but i never tilt lol
Offcourse bankroolmanagement is nr1 in poker. Without good bankrollmanagement every good player can go broke....

What level are you playing sng on? To get back 62$ rakeback you have to put 100$ in rake. the rake is usually 10% of the buy in in sng. So then you have to buy in with a 1000+100$ So if you play 10 sng at the same time with 100$ buy in You have reached that. If its a 10 ppl sng the prize structure is usually 50% 30% 20% That would mean you have to. Win at least 2 and finished 3rd in 1 to break even and make 100 profit. Or finish 2nd in 4 and so on. Kind of risky when you are on a downswing dont you think?

You can play doubles with same strategy as a regular, it works. But at bubble time its completely different, completely. With regular your trying to get in the money in top3. With double you want survive till payout so if 6 left, best way is with 5 people attack the shorty its cruel but hey In regular you want more and more chips, in double you dont care about chips you want to survive also with littl chips. I see so many mistakes from good regular player, they think if i can beat the regular i can beat the doubles also
