Ah, the tilt. If a poker gambler states never to have stared faced down the barrel of a looming steam – they’re either lying or they haven’t been gambling long enough. This does not imply of course that each and every one has been on steam before, a few people have wonderful willpower and carry their squanderings as a hit and keep it at that.
