Ok so to loosely define "tilt," it is essentially a clouded state of mind that one enters when they a) make a wrong read, b) make a bad call, c) get sucked out on, d) run into a cooler situation where your "nuts" end up being 2nd or 3rd nuts (that is my kind of luck, personally).etc. I'm sure there are a plethora of factors that put someone on tilt.

No one can deny that they have "tilt" moments and the reason why is because "tilt" bears an identical reaction to our emotional responses to life. I don't think a single one of us could say we have walked through life never looking back, wondering if our choice(s) was right, what might have happened if we had done x instead, wishing that we had realized we had a wrong read on a person or a situation before things got to a point of no return, etc. And, we all do this. Even if it is brief, because it's honestly an important point of self-reflection.

So, I guess my point is.......tilt is inevitable, but just like life, you can't dwell around on the coulda woulda shouldas, or else you can't move on with a healthy life......aka a healthy and focused poker game.

My question now is this: How do you personally deal with tilt? What are your methods for getting back on a straight and narrow track to success in your game? Can you remember your worst tilt moment and what caused it?

Just thought it might be an interesting topic to discuss and get different points of view.
