Ah, the steam. If a poker gambler states at no time to have stared faced down the shadow of an approaching poker steam – they are either telling a lie or they haven’t been betting long enough. This doesn’t infer of course that every poker player has been on steam before, a few players have great control and take their squanderings as a defeat and leave it at that. To be a great poker player, it is extremely crucial to appraise your wins and your defeats in a similar manner – with little emotion.

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