In Advance of a Tilt
Ah, the poker tilt. If a poker enthusiast claims at no time to have peered over the shadow of an upcoming poker tilt – they are either lying or they have not been competing long enough. This doesn’t mean of course that everyone has been on steam before, a few people have awesome willpower and take their losses as a defeat and keep it at that. To be a great poker player, it’s very crucial to treat your wins and your defeats in a similar way – with no emotion.

You have squandered eighty dollars in a round where you were assured to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you went all-in on the flop and had a 10 – 1 edge. And that fish! He bled you dry on the river? – Well stop right there. This is a classic choice for a new gambler to start tilting. They basically burned too much cash on one round that they should have won and they are agitated
