Failure to notice an incoming hoard of dots because the player was distracted (looking elsewhere, eating a snack, talking to a friend, etc) generally ends badly, with the player restarting the level. Avoiding the dots while navigating to an orb is not an easy task, though! They come from everywhere, so it's crucial to pay close attention to one's surroundings. Just one brief contact with a dot and it's all over though, so it's really important to collect as many orbs as possible. The weapon orbs provide relief - either by anhiliating nearby dots or allowing the player to blend in, going unnoticed by the dots. Surviving for even a minute is something to be proud of! The key to sticking around is trying - as best as possible - to have eyes everywhere and to collect orb after orb to keep the attacks going. There's a lot going on, in every corner of the screen, during every second of Tilt to Live 2: Redonkulous. You can do all kinds of things to rid yourself of tilt, and you probably should, seeing as that’s how you can protect the rest of your game.THIS GAME IS GOOD FOR KIDS WHO NEED HELP WITH: FocusĪrranging and coordinating materials in order to complete a task. My own practice is that I call someone on the phone and speak with them for a few minutes about any non-poker topic. Sit out, stand up, take a walk, listen to your favourite song or do whatever it takes for you to break the habit of being on tilt. It’s much better to skip a few hands than to make a big mistake which can end your tournament. ![]() I think that you can sit out in MTT’s for a few minutes. When you are playing sit & go’s or Spin & Go’s it’s also not difficult – you should finish the games you’re currently playing but refuse to open up any more. Okay, but what should I do if I can’t? If you recognize the signs of tilt in your game you should quit playing! In cash games you can do it immediately. It’s a basic fact that you should avoid tilt if possible. In today’s modern poker tilting is simply a luxury. I know that the examples above aren’t definite But the point is that I’d like to let you know how much you spend on tilt overall. What is definitely true though is that on the final table you can practically lose multiple months of profits if that’s when you get tilted. With multi-table tournaments it’s harder to give an estimate, seeing as it matters greatly which stage of the tourney you committed the mistake in. This is probably the gametype that is the most forgiving when it comes to how much damage a single tilted mistake causes in the long term. If you are prone to sudden but quickly passing tilt you should probably be playing single table sit & go’s. There are many breakeven or small losing cash game players who are only in this situation due to tilting a little every now and then. Usually the buy-in is 100 big blinds or more, so if it happens to him that he loses his whole stack because of tilt at any of the tables, than he will burn more money than his expected daily profit. This is less than the amount a player is sitting on the table with. If he plays 2000-3000 hands daily, he’ll earn 40-60 big blinds. This means that he is earning 2 big blinds on average after every 100 hands played. What’s the situation with cash games? Let’s see an average winning regular, who has a win-rate of 2BB/100 at his own stake. If it happens twice a day, it might take away half the profit. If you calculate 4-5 hours of game time a day, this innocent looking mistake can get rid of 20-25% of your performance for the day. In this example I mentioned my friend is working one hour for free because of these few seconds of luxury, which helps him stop tilting. The game starts with 500 chips, so if you have to win back around 1000-1200 chips to compensate for the losses caused by tilt, you’ll be playing roughly 20 extra games for no reason!Įven if you play multiple tables, it’s about an hour of game time. On Spin & Go’s an average winning regular can earn 50-60 chips per game. My friend plays on 2-3 tables at the same time. OK… Let’s assume that this is right (and this could be a stretch) and take a look at how much this ‘solution’ costs him. For him this means that in the current games he’s playing he moves all in no matter which hand he has! But he says it’s not a big deal because this helps him get it out of his system, so he can continue the session with his best game. ![]() ![]() He replied that sometimes he gets a bit tilted. When I saw some weak moves from him – where he got it all in with very weak hands – I asked him why did he play this way. I have a good friend, who is a winning Spin & Go player, but is prone to tilt.
