Two Hand Tilt (cash)

BAD PLAY

Here's a perfect example of how your game can be affected when you go on tilt. For the past two rounds when I was on the button, I had raised so I think my opponent got sick of it and decided to make a stand. I wasn't sure if he had nothing or if he was anticipating my raise so he could re-raise me. Whatever the case may have been, I ended up folding the hand unsure of what he had.

On the very next hand, I decided to make a stand and just fell into his trap. Even when I re-raised on the turn, my mind was not sharp enough to realize I was dead on the river. Why call the last bet when I knew I was beat? The only hand I could beat was a bluff and with a board like that, would my opponent really bluff all the way down to the river? Of course not! But when you're on tilt, it's nearly impossible to think straight and you will end up donking off some chips.
