Beyond tilt, which is a phenomenon known to all poker players on the world, there is another form of intoxication that can affect your game and which may create in your value system a belief that proves to be harmful in the long term. . This is the perspective of a Royale Chinte, after which many of those who are at the tables or in front of the computer – playing online – run.
How many times have you not seen opponents going in large pots with two books in the same color (9x – 10x, for example), relying on the fact that they will tie a “monster”, although the percentages are never on their side? The temptation is great and very few manage to cope with them. We will discuss in the following about this mirage of the “hands”, which can prove very often toxic to any player.
Human psyche or how do you fool yourself
The sensation that overwhelms you and urges you to run after the “Morgana Girl” is in the brain cortex. Specialists in human psychology have excellently identified this need to have the feeling that “he was there, he was in books.” At the casino, for example, how many times do you not happen to be on the verge of the big jackpot, to see that a single symbol is missing to complete your winning line? In fact, it is just a tertip of the software, which is so scheduled to give you the false feeling that you were close to a huge profit. You will always tell you “I was one step, maybe next time …”.
It is a form of addiction that is cultivated for each player, who will at one point will try to give the big blow, believing that in the past he was a throw away from this. As with bets, when many of us continue to play for years in a number of 15-20 events because at one point they were either very close or even won with such a strategy. In their consciousness remains the feeling that it is possible, even if in the long term most likely they will not meet such an opportunity.
Renunciation of Chinta Royala – applicability in poker
The feeling that you have almost succeeded is present in poker and can affect you more than you think. Playing two involuntary suited connectors you think in the subconscious at the Royală Poker. And sometimes, more often than you think, the dealer will give you such a perspective, but it will rarely materialize.
This is the moment when you can “break the film” and which feeds you with a false impression, which you assimilate as the proximity to the “absolute victory”. It happens frequently for experienced players to pay huge raises in front of sets or hands much better just because there is the mirage of Chintei Royale.
In fact, assuming that your color draw on the tower is completed, there are only two books in the package to help you improve your hand. Even if the draw “comes” right on the flop, there are only two streets in which the two outs of you appear, that is, your chances are only 8%. In 92% of cases you will lose, so it makes no sense to pay large amounts just because you are “almost” by the supreme hand. Such an example creates an unhealthy faith for most players. They have the feeling that they were about to “hit” Royala and at the structural level will internalize this sensation and will behave similarly in the future.
In reality this will only affect their stack and budget, because too few times they will be able to catch the coveted Royala. Antonio Esfandiari, the “magician” of the poker, for example, has recently recognized – in the comment at the final table of WSOP Main Event – that he had only twice in his career the best hand of all. And that’s playing millions of hands. As such, to pay significant amounts just because there is the illusion of that hand is undoubtedly extremely harmful to your budget. Give up this unhealthy faith that may have already been rooted in the subconscious, be much more rigorous with the hands and you will find that your budget will only have to win.
