Lou Krieger, in Poker Player newspaper column, May 7, 2012 (vol. 15, #23), page 6.
For some, tilt has ended otherwise promising careers--even some WSOP main event champs, who were not able to control their emotions at the table--and many big-money winners who have gone completely broke, due to an inability and an unwillingness to deal with being on tilt. In other words, the willingness and commitment to get up from the table when stressed, and to take a short walk every hour or so, has cost some players millions--everything they earned and every dollar they had--while a simplistic little remedy might have prevented it all.
...When it comes to managing tilt, you are the one in charge. If you are unable to deal with it, the fault is entirely yours.

Yes - it's cost some people millions and others the ability to actually sustain themselves on poker alone.
Tilt is a funny thing - to those who control it I salute you and to those who can't - thanks for donating!
