Ah, the poker tilt. If a poker gambler states never to have looked down the barrel of an upcoming steam – they’re either lying or they haven’t been playing very long. This doesn’t imply obviously that every player has gone on tilt before, a few people have great control and carry their losses as a hit and leave it at that.

He banged you out on the river? – Well stop right here. This is a quintessential choice for a fresh player to start tilting. They really just blew too much $$$$ on one round that they should have won and they are pissed
