I was playing in a good 10-20 game at M.B. when I'm dealt j-8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif in the sb. There is one limper and the bb raises and I make a loose call. Flop comes AK7 with two /images/graemlins/heart.gif I check bb checks and ep bets and we both call. Turn is an 8. checked to the raiser who bets and we call. River is a blank and ep bets I think for a long time and this guy was in every hand an a lag so I make a crying call even though bb probably has me beat. BB flips over qq and I say good hand and as I'm trowing my hand in the muck he starts yelling I didn't call!! Dealer starts yelling are you sure you want to do that, but it was to late. Ep shows 6-5 of hearts for a busted draw and takes the pot. I felt soooooo stupid, but I learned a very valuble lesson. First, I played the hand badly and second I should have laid my cards on the table. I didn't go on tilt and ended up busting the lag for all his chips and went on to a 600+ payday. I learned a very valuable lesson here on how to play the hand and never muck until you see the cards and know you are beat.
