Ah, the poker steam. If a poker player states at no time to have stared faced down the shadow of an approaching tilt – they are either telling a lie or they haven’t been competing for a long time. This does not infer of course that every player has been on tilt in the past, a few players have awesome control and carry their losses as a loss and keep it at that. To be a powerful poker gambler, it’s extremely important to approach your successes and your losses in the same manner – with little emotion.

You’ve burned eighty dollars in a round where you were certain to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you decided to go all-in on the flop and held a ten to one advantage. And that fish! He bled you dry on the river? – Well stop right here. This is a classic opportunity for a fresh player to begin tilting. They basically burned too much $$$$ on one round that they should have won and they’re agitated
