Tilt and Self Control
Getting mad and betting and raising with nothing is called "tilt". For some reason, lots of players make dumb plays when they're mad. Why someone would reward an opponent they're mad at by giving them more money is amazingly stupid, but it happens all the time. When you're playing with a player on tilt, then you're in a profitable situation. When you're on tilt, you're going to probably lose money.
"Tilt" is a bad habit, and you should stop tilting if that's a habit of yours. The way you stop losing control of your play is up to you, but you might try walking away from the table until you calm down, or practicing meditation or something. Mike Caro has a great mantra, by the way: "I am a winning poker player. A powerful winning force surrounds me."

Re: Tilt and Self Control
Sometimes its hard not to get mad, walking away for a minute is the best. Totally clear the head from all that went wrong and refocus on what you need to do to make sure you dont get yourself into a spot like the 1 that made you so angry. Very nice post!!!
Good luck on the felts
