In Advance of a Tilt
Ah, the steam. If a poker enthusiast claims at no time to have peered down the barrel of an approaching poker tilt – they are either telling a lie or they haven’t been gambling long enough.

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