Ah, the poker steam. If a poker gambler states at no time to have stared faced down the barrel of a looming poker steam – they’re either telling a lie or they haven’t been wagering very long.

He banged you out on the river? – Well hold it right there. This is a quintessential opportunity for a brand-new player to begin tilting. They just burned too much $$$$ on one round that they should have won and they are angry
