In this article I am going to discuss the concept of looking beyond the bad beat. When you lose a big poker hand, the circumstances by which you lose the hand will dictate how bad you feel about the outcome. Being at the final table of a large poker tournament you might have the opportunity for a life changing win, so having to return to your day job, albeit a little richer but not nearly as close to your goal as you might have been, it seems a cruel way to end the poker tournament. When luck and not skill causes you to lose, it feels even worse.

At the end of the day whether you are playing poker online or in some live casino, psychology will come into play at some stage. With regards to online poker many people will argue that psychology plays a very minimal part in the game simply because you cannot see or hear your opponents. There is some truth to this although I feel that it is extremely misleading because psychology plays a huge part in online poker and do not let anyone else tell you otherwise.

Whether you are playing live poker or online you will not be able to get away from the fact that cheating occurs. You will no doubt have read of countless incidents and heard numerous reports from lots of people connected with this subject. What this means is that there is an awful lot of paranoia that is unfortunately also connected. Now we all know that cheating occurs, it occurs in all walks of life and poker is certainly no different in that aspect.

There are clear arguments either way for people who say that playing a lot online is better than playing just a few hours a week. I always feel that the differing situations for various people often means that what may be correct for someone else may not be correct for others. For instance I stopped playing high-stakes poker several years ago when my writing and promotional work started to get more and more intense. At the end of the day poker is a skill in the same way as driving and other skill related activities.

It is a little understood fact that tilt is more common in online poker than it is in live play. There are numerous reasons for this and the first one has to do with human psychology. When human beings experience negative events in their lives, they are in a far better situation to be able to handle them if other aspects of their life are running smoothly.

We all want to be professional poker players making $1 million a year. Why play if this is something we do not want? We also like to forget that in any sport there are certain traits in your mental character that must be present in order to achieve a high level of success. Examples are the big game clutch ability of a basketball or football player, the self confidence of a sprint runner or the ruthless streak of a poker player. If we are missing any of the key traits to a poker player’s mental make-up, we might do quite well but we will never reach the top. Let’s look at the mental strengths you need to be a top pro, once you know what they are you can work at obtaining them.

To win playing poker you build a pot that you win having the strongest hand at the showdown. Whilst your opponent remains in the hand they too are building a pot hoping that they either have a strong hand already or draw to hit the necessary cards to improve to the winning hand. Once the hands are revealed, you may have done everything right during the hand in terms of bet sizing, raising or checking yet the one or two cards that your opponent was drawing for to win came out, thus costing you the pot. This is referred to as a “bad beat” meaning that luck rather than skill contributed to the winning hand this time. It can be very frustrating; no-one likes losing to a lucky player.

A bad beat causes negative emotion as soon as that bad card hits the felt causing you to lose the pot. The first thing you feel is irritation and anger that you have lost the pot you feel you deserved to win. The second may be anger at your opponent daring to celebrate even though they are just plain lucky. You then imagine your chip stack and the chips you have just lost. If you are still in the tournament you must bounce back from the bad beat or your game will be negatively affected from this point forward and you may bust out. In cash games the next hand could be costly if you are on tilt.
