Ah, the poker tilt. If a poker gambler claims never to have peered down the shadow of a looming tilt – they’re either telling a lie or they have not been competing long enough.

He bled you dry on the river? – Well stop right here. This is a quintessential choice for a brand-new bettor to start tilting. They just blew too much money on one round that they really should have won and they are angry
