Has this ever happened to you?, Big_Slick, 13. Aug 2003 19:47
    View ( Message | Thread )       Return to Thread List
I was playing some 3/6 online and got dealt 10-Q in LP. A player in EP raises and the player to my right re-raises. I go to fold my hand and accidentally hit the raise button. OH SH*T!! I'm cursing at myself for being such an idiot and throwing away 12 dollars.

Well, to make a long story short, I flopped the nut straight and took down a huge pot.

LOL

The Poker Gods are a funny bunch. What was even better was that everyone at the table thought I was a complete idiot for capping the betting with 10-Q. I got all kinds of action after that.

Has something like this ever happened to you? I know that sooner or later, I'm gonna do the opposite and fold a hand by accident when I don't mean too. I won't be smiling when that happens.

I'm afraid I have "MissClicked" several times in the past couple of months. Come to think of it, that would make pretty cool online name. lol

I have done something similiar.

Once I was trying to press check while in the BB while the UTG made his choice. As I went to click, someone must have clicked their raise and someone else must have click raise any because when the UTG folded the action came to me so fast that I called 2 bets.

Learned my lesson.

I was at work one day ( part time DJ) and I usually run back and forth between studio and the computer and I had A3 off, and was going to check on the BB after I ran back to the computer, not looking very hard at the screen and willing to call a 50 cent bet which is what I saw, I clicked the middle button. The problem was this is NL Holdem and one guy just went all in for 15 bucks.
Im screamin at myself for bein that stupid and throwin 15 bucks down the toilet. Still amazed at what I witnessed next.
FLOP: 2 9 Q ( still screwed)
TURN: 3 ( still screwed one card for an out)
RIVER: 5 ( amazed and immediately begin apologizing,lol)

I guess I was living right,lol

BRENT

A pair of threes won the pot? Or did you have A4 for the straight?

Yeah, I've done it too! Just once, but if I remember correctly......I lost:(
I was playing in two games though, but I was playing stud 8 or better and a game of hold-em. I was dealt pocket Aces in the hold-em game and at the same time I was dealt a crappy stud 8 hand like Q-9-2, and accidentally 3 BET the high low hand......needless to say I was out on 5th street....'cause that 3 bet on 3rd street DID get me a freebie on 4th! Oh well.......at least my Aces held up! LOL!

Yes I have miss clicked and thrown away money (I have this awful habit sometimes of flicking my wrist like I'm folding real cards and hitting check or call).

One time in BB I had like a 8-3o and the flop was was like A-J-T. I accidently hit raise and it folded the 3 remaining player. I thought it was funny but, I had to apologize to everyone and tell them I meant to fold.....they didn't find it too funny.

I only run into this when playing multiple tables that pop up automatically.

I folded a pair of queens with 3 rags on the board, then watched another queen come on the turn. Meanwhile my 2-7 off at the other table that I was trying to fold was still waiting for me to act.

Did it in a tournament, was going to check the check button from my BB (the automatic checkbox) and just as I clicked it the hand came to me and it turned into a yellow button. (UB has the buttons appear over the checkboxes) well it was a call 1750 button (someone raised) and I called 90% of my chips with my awesome 2,9 off-suit.

The poker gods were mean and I was forced to show my 2,9 up to a KK all-in while the flop, etc was drawn.

Its safe to say I looked like an idiot.
