Ah, the steam. If a poker gambler states at no time to have looked down the barrel of an upcoming tilt – they are either lying or they have not been playing for a long time.

He sucked you out on the river? – Well hold it right here. This is a classic choice for a new gambler to start tilting. They really just blew too much money on one hand that they really should have won and they are angry
