    I imagine this has been done before but I had to share.

    During a recent rage of "I can't believe that fucker called me with that trash" I threw a beer bottle against a wall... and it felt FANTASTIC. I've since isolated an area of my basement and set it up for easy cleaning against a concrete wall and I think this is something Dr. Phil himself would be proud of. Breaking mice has also been fun but that can get expensive. Any other ideas?

    smashing the entire laptop against the table is effective...if you dont' have a laptop, one of those old-school really huge computer monitors works good for shaking and smashing into the wall that's behind the desk

    Wireless mouse is def the best thing to smash, you can throw it really fuckin hard into walls or just straight up toss it down the street when an extreme beat occurs. Also it does not cost that much to replace, wireless mouse FTW.

    I used to be so fucking horrible about tilt lol, threw my laptop and it stuck in my drywall... that was classy

    lotta mouses, lotta back hands through the wall next to wear I used to play, shattered some a mirror with a full natty light can... still paying for that one

    now I keep shit pretty legit, just go for a walk, and thank the poker gods that people are out there that are excited to get there money in as huge dogs

    honestly, i think anyone who has a temper that is this easy to set off should never have kids.....child abuse waiting to happen (with cards its at least a coinflip most of the time--kids are inevitably a super pain in the ass)

    Just get one of those small stress balls from poker stars you can also throw them against the wall as well and the monitor without breaking anything.

    I actually have one of the stars plush balls and I throw my gf's stuffed animal all the time but there's just something about the shattering of glass that calms me down. General destruction and carnage I guess.

    No a lot of women don't break things they just take it out on their boyfriend or husband... j/k man.

    You probably don't tilt because you run goot.

    Mouses are the best because you can really smash them good. I have done kitchen chairs a couple of times, but those are really messy and expensive and will make your roomates / anyone around think that you are borderline insane. I also kicked a hole in one of our doors. Definately best to stick with mouses as they are cheap and easy to replace.

    It takes a pretty fckin bad beat really late to piss me off...but i prefer to use double fist slams into my desk. It actually helps a lot, and I'm usually over it in about 5 minutes--after I take a bong rip.

    I've only broken one thing and it was my laptop supplied by my work. I just said that it fell out of my bag onto the concrete. I got away with it once but don't think I would twice.

    Yeah Agree w/ the self inflicted pain method.

    I often pull a Liar, Liar and go into the bathroom so I can repeatedly smash my head between the porclin and the toliet seat. Works well since I'm often throwing up anyways.

    Just yesterday, I broke my mouse (3rd one in a year) I put a dent in my laptops key board. Added 2 new holes into the bad beat wall. A new hole into my closet door, I shattered a cigar box into my bathroom sink and I slammed my wrsits downon my desk repeatedly and Im like 80% sure my right wrist is broken or I have a really bad bonne contussion.

    But my favorite thing to break has got to be sheetrock I love punching holes in walls when Im mad. which i really need to stop but just cant.

    I sadly just broke my first laptop a week ago. It wasnt because of a badbeat tho. My internet went out when i had a lot of cash currently invested in MTTS and around 12 sngs. I kept slamming my fists on the keyboard til it simply shut off. Im not forced to play on this mac desktop (which actrually isnt that bad).

    I usually just take it out on the gf.... Saves me money and usually takes the tilt away. And then I'm obviously too tired to keep playing so I go to sleep. Not to say I haven't run through a couple bankrolls but thats how I've been dealing with it lately. Wish I thought of it sooner.

    Body count for the past year:

    2 remote controls (in lieu of mice, I use the touchpad on my laptop)

    1 dining room chair (the cheap kind, Ikea crap)

    1 old printer (it was going to be thrown out anyways, but I got knocked out of a tourney quads over quads and just threw that bitch off my balcony. it was amazing)

    But I hardly ever have this problem since my Mac runs goot... I haven't broken anything in probably 4 or 5 months.
