RESPECT MY AUTH-OR-I-TIE!

The dude had put me slightly on tilt. Yeah, it was only a .10/.25 PL Omaha table that I had fired up out of boredom while playing a $5 NL tournament. But tilt is tilt. We were playing short-handed and he kept pushing me off pots when the board went bad on fourth street. My head aching from a sinus infection, it didn't take much to piss me off at that point.

Meats, a solid and talented player in The Group, asked me recently during a post-tournament Denny's session whether I ever tilt. I assured him that I don't. I guess I lied.
