I think what makes me tilt the most is when you have the constant chatter boxes on each side of you. they are talking to each other non stop to each other and you are the barrier between them. I usually put my headphne and blast some music so I dont have to listen to it.

Another thing that makes me tilt is. That one player that goes all in on nearly every hand. Oh I have a 2c/4h I better go all in. Next hand I have a 5h/7s I am going all in. These people annoy me.
Sure sooner or later they will get knocked out. It just ruffles my feathers when its the same person turn after turn.

then min bet/SNAP calls your river shove with TP when 4 -straight 4-flush river card falls! Just saying, ive noticed that if they do it 3 streets they're more likely to call on the river

Bad beats can definitely put me on tilt. Something like flopping a set, somehow managing to get your opponent to call your all-in to then lose to their gutshot straight on the river or losing with KK to KQs..... I also agree with some of the previous users who mentioned bad manners and arrogance in other players causing them to tilt. But by far the worst thing is if I'm playing online and one of my flatmates has problems with his (and only his!) internet again so he decides to turn the router off and on again causing me to disconnect whilst in a big hand.

What's tilting me the most right now is trying to study and play at least minimally okay ABC poker, and continually being the short stack or bubble boy because of people calling any raise, any time, anywhere, with any two cards, and either flopping the nuts with something like 52o or stacking me on the river when I make them pay to chase their <10% draws.
I've been playing $1.10 STT's on Bovada and I can't tell the difference between these and play money. I know I'm a weak player but I see people make the most ridiculous plays time after time and get rewarded continuously. Somebody raises 5x pre with AA/KK, 3 call. He bets pot size post-flop, they all call. He bets again on the turn, maybe one folds. He goes all in on the river, the others all call, and the winner, who definitely wasn't the original raiser, winds up hitting some ridiculous two or three-outer on the river to take it all with a garbage hand against the original raiser's flopped set.

I had the exact hand beat me last night. Ihad aj suited and was big stack @ my table I reraised 4x bb pre flop get called . Fine.The board comes up 3 clubs with j as the high card. He raises oop, I reraise him ai( he had been playing loose so I was not concerned about his raise)and he calls.w Q4 off. The turn was a blank. He rivers a club and acts like he made a great play by calling. I have to admit, I was so aggravated by his superstar comments that I made sure he didn't cash but unfortunately I hurt myself too. In short, bad play coupled with I am a superstar but you suck comments can get to me.

What tilts me is that when a player doesnt respect the dealers or the floor when the floor simply rules against them then they act like a cry baby and gods gift to this world, why do puople play poker if they arent having fun and respect others?

Early stage MTT stallers still infuriate me. Getting better at dealing with them, though. I play mostly freerolls even though I have money on a site (won from freerolls). So when I run across one, I close out the table and I go do something else, then come back in a few days or a week, and hope to get a table free of these pestilential players. I'm much happier that way. They just aren't worth getting pissed off at, and if the sites can't or won't deal with them, they sure don't ever deserve my deposits.

People who don't understand the basic laws of physics make me tilt. People who argue positions based on "feelings and semantics" regardless of what the scientific evidence says, makes me tilt.
Not so much a poker reference...just what makes me tilt in general.

Talking about stuff in general, another thing I find really irritating is when you have a ton of experience and training in some field, and when you're trying to tell somebody something they pull out the good old "proof by anecdote" fallacy and insist that you have no idea what you're talking about because their ONE personal experience was different.
Regarding the laws of physics, politics will blow right through those any day:dontknow:
