When hardball tactics and high stakes rattle you at the table

I can sit at the table and work through the terms of a deal without freezing up anymore. But when the other side plays hardball, slamming folders, threatening to walk, and there's real money on the line, my stomach drops. I keep my face calm but inside I'm scrambling, and I know they can probably tell.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You can negotiate fine until the tactics turn aggressive and the stakes climb.
