Ah, the poker tilt. If a poker player claims at no time to have stared faced down the barrel of an approaching poker steam – they’re either telling a lie or they have not been playing for a long time.

He bled you dry on the river? – Well hold it right there. This is a quintessential opportunity for a fresh player to begin tilting. They really just blew too much money on one hand that they should have won and they are pissed
