Ah, the steam. If a poker player states never to have stared faced over the barrel of an upcoming steam – they are either lying or they haven’t been playing for a long time. This does not imply obviously that every poker player has been on tilt in the past, a few people have wonderful control and carry their squanderings as a hit and leave it at that.
