basic strategy tilt

so last night i was playing live dealer and i actually knew the right moves but kept second guessing myself, and then when one small thing didn’t go my way i started going full tilt and ignored basic strategy for a couple hands. i always try to be chill at the table but my head just spun. i know everyone says stick to the chart no matter what but when you’re seeing a cold shoe and then you double a soft 18 and pull a 3, it just feels so wrong to go by the book.

i’m not the only one who slips like this, right? just venting because i ended up making back a couple bucks but i felt so dumb the whole session. even with live dealer it gets in your head.
