I always get on tilt when i play a 4 hour or more tournament any ideas? ? ?

I usually get tilted after a bad beat. It seems like it is hard to play poker after..

I agree, when I MTT and get a bad beat in a T I will give my chips away in the other,hate it when that happens....try to play big enough buy-ins for your BR to stayed intrested,,works for me,Usally better play in the higher buy-ins $3-11$ I think

If u dont cash after 4hrs in an mtt, it sucks and hard not to tilt. I hate playing those long tournaments unless im multi tabling other ones. The upside is that if u go very deep, it cant be a lot of money.

4 hr tourneys u tend to lose patience by the end if its a freeroll i rather take my chances right at the start go allin and if lucky play a few hands then go for a smoke or sleep for half n hr or somethin and continue play agn later so u feeling refreshed and dont hav to sit right from start to end

Lol yea. I used to do that in freerolls. Or try to make my stack 10x starting by 20 or 30 minutes and then actually get serious or just sit out. Saves time to a long tourny.

Do something else, poker isn't for you if you tilt because you play a 4 hour tourney and get KO'd, that's very average.

5.5 - 6 hr + range is where you can feel frustrated enough to tilt if you cash small.
