That was hilarious. I have one that is similar, but with a big dose of humiliation.

8/16 Bellagio a few years ago.

Four flush hits the river and a real tight early player bets out. I am 100% convinced he has the flush. So, being as smart as I am I lay down my set. But, I want the guy to know how smart I am so I show him (a bad idea in itself).

The dealer looks at me and says something like, "wow. what a great laydown of your fullhouse against an obvious straight." The entire table burst out laughing at me.

So, not only did I make a similar mistake but I was also dumb enough to show the whole table how stupid I am. Plus, I lost a $200 pot. That is what happens when you play tired.

I was once up for 2 days straight and was dealt 99 in the BB....flop came 99A and I folded to a ton of bets and raises thinking I had pocket 6s. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I once folded aces preflop...This was online and I froze.
My worst play ever was mucking my hand after seeing an opponents J4 on a board of TJ466. I thought I only had one pair KJ and the second i released my cards realized I had the winner.

One of my worst happened when I just started playing hold'em, at a low buy-in MTT. We go heads-up to the flop of KT4, me holding TT. Slowplaying, I call my opponent's bets on the flop and on the turn, and when the river brings the second king, he checks. I think for a long time, and announce that I check as well, because my "three of a kind, tens" is undoubtedly beaten by his "three of a kind, kings".

Of course, he shows me an unpaired king, and I would have taken his whole stack. Oops. I didn't even realize that I had a boat until a few hands later, after my opponent had already taken the pot.

(I ended up winning the tournament!)

The bad part, however, is that I did the same thing (well, this time is was fours full of kings) two weeks later in a cash game. My excuse is that I'd been playing poker for about two months at this point -- but still, inexcusable.

No, Falker -- your worst play ever was when you couldn't dodge SIX CARDS IN THE DECK to have your fours full of sixes hold up to that LAG at Turning Stone.

Talk about not being good enough at poker to survive the river card. Seriously.

I would imagine that misreading the full house is the most common of the 'bonehead plays' people make.

Well I am heading back to the bike tonight, and hopefully I can fold my flush thinking that the straight on the board clearly has me beat!!!!

It wasn't at a casino, but at a very low stakes (I think $5 buyin), when my friend was learning he folded 'pocket ones' He was later asked what he had and was proud he thought he made a good lay down.
