Steaming
1 min read
Same as tilt.
In the context of gambling, particularly in sports betting and poker, "steaming" refers to a state of emotional agitation or frustration that leads a player to make impulsive or irrational betting decisions. When a player is "steaming," they may be influenced by recent losses or bad beats, causing them to chase losses or bet recklessly in an attempt to recover their funds. This can result in further losses and a downward spiral in their gambling behavior. It’s generally advised for players to recognize when they are steaming and to take a break or step back to regain composure before continuing to gamble.
