Before you Tilt
Ah, the poker steam. If a poker enthusiast claims never to have peered down the barrel of an upcoming tilt – they are either telling a lie or they have not been wagering long enough. This doesn’t imply of course that every poker player has gone on steam before, a handful of people have great control and take their squanderings as a defeat and leave it at that. To be a great poker gambler, it’s especially important to treat your wins and your defeats in the same manner – with little emotion.

You’ve squandered eighty dollars in a round where you should have picked up $200two hundred dollars when you decided to go all-in on the flop and held a 10 – 1 edge. And that amateur! He bled you dry on the river? – Well stop right here. This is a classic opportunity for a new player to start tilting. They really just blew too much cash on one round that they really should have won and they are angry
