Texas Holdem Poker Tilt

Posted on December 8th, 2006 in General Texas Holdem Poker Strategy by blogger

Emotional Considerations:
Tilt - For example, you just lost a big pot with your trip AAA because someone paid a pot size bet and caught his inside straight draw. On the next hand you go all in with QJ in early position, a play that is usually not a part of your Texas Holdem strategy. Naturally you should quit if you go on tilt.

Money Management Considerations:
You should also quit when you have more money at the table than you should risk. For example, a beginner has just doubled his $10 into $20. Her Bankroll is $100. She might consider leaving because it is not a good idea to put 20% of your Bankroll at risk.
Ideally, you should only have 1/30 of your Bankroll at risk on any given table.
