Ah, the poker steam. If a poker gambler claims never to have stared faced over the barrel of a looming tilt – they’re either lying or they haven’t been gambling very long. This does not mean obviously that every poker player has been on tilt in the past, a number of players have excellent control and carry their squanderings as a loss and keep it at that. To be a powerful poker player, it is absolutely important to approach your successes and your losses in the same way – with little emotion.

You have lost $80 in a hand where you should have picked up $200two hundred dollars when you decided to go all-in on the flop and had a 10 – 1 advantage. And that fish! He bled you dry on the river? – Well hold it right here. This is a classic opportunity for a new bettor to start tilting. They just lost too much money on one round that they really should have won and they are agitated
