Online Casino Tilt

"Tilt" is when a gambler begins to chase losses, especially losses that are considered "bad beats" in which he lost a seemingly good sure bet. "Tilt" is pouring gasoline on the fire and making a bad situation even worse. And "tilt" is what can destroy a bankroll in no time when gambling at an online casino.

When you decide to take up gambling, one of the first things that you have to come to grips with is that you are going to suffer bad beats, many of them. There is no escape and nobody lucks out all the time. You will lose your share of "sure things" and quickly learn that there is no such thing as a sure thing in online casino gambling. Once you have the maturity to understand this, you can then move on to the next phase of being a disciplined professional.

There is a key to success at online casino gambling in which you win in the long run by learning how to lose in the short run. Nobody likes to lose but it is going to happen, it’s inevitable. So the way in which you lose will determine your ultimate success. Going on "tilt" after a loss will blow away your bankroll. There is something about gambling "karma" and "tilt" that nearly guarantee failure. On the other hand those who take losing as part of the bigger overall picture will be around at the right time when "Lady Luck" smiles upon them.

Gambling is like war. You must ration and preserve your assets for when it’s the right time to go on the offensive. When you waste bullets in a losing battle, you won't have any remaining for when it’s the right time to fire!
