Ah, the steam. If a poker gambler claims never to have looked over the shadow of an approaching tilt – they’re either telling a lie or they haven’t been competing very long. This doesn’t mean obviously that every poker player has gone on tilt before, some people have awesome willpower and take their squanderings as a defeat and leave it at that.

He bled you dry on the river? – Well hold it right there. This is a classic opportunity for a fresh player to begin tilting. They really just burned too much cash on one hand that they should have won and they’re agitated
