Tilt - To make bad decisions out of frustration.


Poker can be extremely frustration, so it is very hard for players to keep their emotions in check 100% of the time. When players allow their aggravations to rule their decisions, it is said they are on tilt.

Tilting is one of the most common leaks amongst poker players. A lot of money is lost when players let emotions rule their decisions rather than common sense and good sensible play. Normally, tilt play is too loose and very aggressive because the player wants to win back money that he was previously lost.

Successful players have learned the importance of keeping an even temper. It is a constant struggle, but really good players can realize it as it is happening and make adjustments or simply get out the game if they think they can't control it. The main thing players should understand is that all good or great hands do not win all the time. And that if you get your money in with the best of it, in the long run you will be the player that is ahead.
