I'm an idiot

paragraphs bro

ye i got K3 into 44 on a 355 board (yup I got owned), it went QQ and I mucked my hand
(he showed me his on the flop) we lold about it a little bit, guy laughed at me and said he'd done similar as everyone has. I'm sure I've done another one similar I just can't remember it at the moment.

Id played over a million online midstakes hands by this point so I really had no excuse, this was about 3-4 years ago. Just lol'd and continued on playing, ended up stacking the guy later 22 into AK on a 2578Q he 3 bet and 3 barrell shoved.

Oh thats right I remember, I also got dealt TT got it in on a Q973 board after villain taking a really weird line for him and c/jam turn, river 7 villain shows J9, I 'triumphantly' table my T3 (I got dealt the ten, looked at it, thought it was Th got dealt the 3 but it must have slid under the 'Th' which was actually Td which I look at again and believe I have the red tens).
So to make matters worse people probably thought I opened T3 off pretty early and then stacked off with bottom pair on the most co-ordinated board ever, lost the pot and then still decided to turn my hand up. I did that another time same thing with 'jacks' (J4off) utg final 2 tables of a tourny, raise get 3 callers someone jams for like 7 bigs i re-iso against his 88 and everyone else folds.

I'm much more careful now, but these things are going to happen sometimes I suppose.. However I dont think I'd ever muck in a pot i'm entitled to before villains hand is mucked or tabled.

Dont feel bad about it though just try to relax a little more just verbally say allin more often as well, I find it very useful.

So obviously I go all in, but when I pushed my stack in the middle I kind of dragged my smaller stack behind my bigger stack so even though I pushed with one motion one could argue that it was kind of a string bet and I instantly regretted being lazy with that. Anyways villan argued that it was a string bet since both stacks didn't cross the betting line at same time, but the dealer said that it was ok since she said it was one motion, but the guy still argued and started to ask for floor. So the dealer asked me if it was a big deal, and since I didn't want the hassle of getting a floor over and since I thought it was my fault for being lazy I just said it was fine and took my bet back from a shove to a call. Then for some reason, in my head I thought he had folded before showing his hand, and was only showing what he folded and I threw my hand into the muck since before I realized that I just threw away the winning hand. That moment when you realize you just went full retard -_-. Anyways I just looked at the table at utter disbelief at what I just did, and didn't even bother trying to get my cards back because I knew once it hit the muck it was dead anyways. When the guy asked me what I had, I told him I had the nuts and probably from the way I reacted he believed me because he gave me $10 , after instantly leaving after the hand. Not really sure if he planned to hit n run, or if he felt bad and didn't want to play anymore but I didn't even care because it was my fault. Anyways to cheer myself up I went to the food court downstairs to get myself a smoothie and while in line some random black dude taps me on the back walking by and says "it will be alright" so I must have looked heartbroken lol. I guess a lot of live players have done this before since the players next to me all said that they have done it and just said forget about it any keep playing, but it being my first time made me so angry and frustrated with myself I found it impossible to do so and I just got up and left from being so tilted. ughh

sounds like nice people to play with, you are lucky they did not try to fuck your mind

why do you play 40 bb poker vs live donks?

I must say I've never ever made a mistake like that. I guess it helps that I've been taught how to focus since I was like 5 (because of chess). I see this every day, people lose focus so easily, I am very lucky to have this kind of background...

closest ive done is 3way pot everyone ai. I lose to player 1 and muck. however i had player 2 beat and we both had bigger stacks than player 1 so i threw away the sidepot

lol, the title of this blog post perfectly matches up with the description


I bet you won't make the same mistake again any time soon. Always remember to verbalize your bets in situations like that
