Compared to live, I can't concentrate when playing online poker and tilt 10 times as much!
Firstly if I suffer a bad beat, I tilt more than literally anyone in the world! 1 bad beat can cost me 10 buy-ins online in 10 mins! (no joke), however live I don't do this. Possibly because everyone can see me, but maybe because of the slower pace it gives me a chance to think about my actions and the situation.
Secondly, When I play live I have all this information running through my head.
What position is the first raiser in? how LAG is the player who re-raised? What does my image look like? etc
However online If I play anymore than 2 tables after 10/15 mins I literally go into a zombie like mode of 'playing my cards' and I struggle to think of any of those questions and all though I still think of a few things like position I can't remember their image and forget completely about my own.
The issue is, playing 1/2 tables isn't gonna cut it online. It would take 20 years to make any decent money, which makes me want to play zoom poker but I feel this is what messed me up in the first place.
I don't use a HUD although I do own HM2. Would this help me improve mentally or make me even more robotic!
