Remember, this is just a game.
You're not going to save your life or anyone else's life by playing and winning or losing. In the big picture of life, this isn't the most important thing you will ever do.
Just wish I could take my own advice.
Ok, then practice meditation with deep-breathing when awaiting your turn at the table. I do and it does help.
For some, relaxing when they play pool is as natural as breathing. For others like me, you are asking them to achieve what does not come naturally.
The others in this thread gave excellent advice. Try them all and see which ones work for you. It will get better.

Like Joey said, it's just a game.
The most important game is the game of life, and that's the one where you'll need to play your best. :smile:
