Ah, the tilt. If a poker gambler claims at no time to have stared faced down the barrel of an upcoming steam - they are either lying or they have not been wagering for a long time. This does not indicate obviously that every poker player has gone on steam in the past, a handful of players have excellent willpower and take their losses as a loss and keep it at that.

He bled you dry on the river? - Well stop right here. This is a classic opportunity for a fresh player to start tilting. They just burned too much cash on one round that they really should have won and they are aggravated
