Ah, the steam. If a poker player claims never to have looked over the barrel of an approaching poker steam – they’re either lying or they haven’t been gambling for a long time. This doesn’t mean of course that every poker player has been on tilt before, some people have great willpower and carry their squanderings as a hit and leave it at that.

He sucked you out on the river? – Well hold it right here. This is a quintessential choice for a fresh player to begin tilting. They just blew too much cash on one hand that they should have won and they are aggravated
