Ah, the tilt. If a poker enthusiast claims never to have looked over the shadow of an upcoming tilt – they are either lying or they haven’t been competing long enough.

He bled you dry on the river? – Well hold it right there. This is a classic opportunity for a brand-new gambler to begin tilting. They basically lost too much money on one hand that they really should have won and they are agitated
