Ah, the poker tilt. If a poker gambler states at no time to have looked down the barrel of an approaching poker steam – they are either lying or they have not been wagering for a long time. This does not imply obviously that everyone has gone on tilt in the past, a few people have great willpower and take their squanderings as a defeat and leave it at that. To be a great poker player, it’s absolutely critical to approach your successes and your defeats in an identical manner – with no emotion.

He sucked you out on the river? – Well hold it right there. This is a classic opportunity for a new bettor to start tilting. They just burned too much cash on one round that they should have won and they’re angry
