Ah, the tilt. If a poker gambler claims never to have looked down the barrel of an upcoming poker tilt – they’re either lying or they have not been competing for a long time.

He banged you out on the river? – Well stop right there. This is a quintessential choice for a new bettor to begin tilting. They really just blew too much money on one round that they should have won and they are angry
