Ah, the tilt. If a poker player states at no time to have looked down the barrel of an upcoming poker tilt – they’re either telling a lie or they haven’t been wagering long enough. This doesn’t indicate of course that every player has been on steam before, a handful of people have awesome willpower and carry their losses as a loss and keep it at that.

He bled you dry on the river? – Well hold it right there. This is a classic choice for a fresh bettor to begin tilting. They really just blew too much $$$$ on one hand that they should have won and they are angry
