Ah, the poker tilt. If a poker player states at no time to have looked down the barrel of a looming tilt – they’re either lying or they have not been gambling very long.

You’ve lost eighty dollars in a hand where you were certain to pick up $200two hundred dollars when you went all-in on the flop and had a ten to one edge. And that guy! He bled you dry on the river? – Well hold it right there. This is a classic opportunity for a brand-new player to start tilting. They really just blew too much $$$$ on one round that they really should have won and they are agitated
