Don’t play cash games after a tournament win if you admit your not a very good cash game player

Congrats on the tourney success

The trick is to leave the cap on the water bottle, or even better have an empty water bottle especially for tilt management….

Hi McTap

In order to improve you have to sometimes launch yourself into uncharted territories. I was searching for the holy land but instead ended in hell. Don’t worry….I have learned my lesson.
With regards to tilt I have now started squeezing a water bottle really tight when I feel a fit a rage coming:-)

Cash games???? If you made your money in a tourney, why would you spew it away in a cash games? I truly don’t do well in cash games, so I avoid them at all costs. I’ve tried playing some online, but have only donated my buy-ins. They are a different beast than tournament play. From what I can understand, you need to be willing to speculate with a variety of hands from various position in order to make money. If you are a tight aggressive player you are less likely to get paid off, as most of your opponents will get out of the way to your pre-flop raise. Nice try though, it is the only way to learn. Now, try working on that tilt thing!!! LOL.
