My worst mistake ever
I wouldn't have thought it would be possible to have one, since I routinely misplay hands in all sorts of ways. But I was wrong.
Foxwoods, 4-8. The game is great -- 6 to the flop for a raise is typical. Three limpers to me, with 8h9h in cut off. I limp, blinds come, six to a flop of: 3c7hTh Checked to me, I bet, SB calls, EP player calls. 3 to turn of: (3c7hTh) Jd I have the nut str8, I bet, SB raises, EP folds, I three bet, SB calls. We take the river head up: (3d7hTh Jd) Jh Oh no the full house is on board. My flush with a 9 in my hand is no good. I check, SB bets, I make a crying call, he shows Ah2h for the nut flush. I muck my hand without showing. |

Misplaying straight flushes is one of your big leaks [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: My worst mistake ever
At least you can take solace in the fact that your opponent didn't have a boat and had only a flush and therefore even the donk would stop to think and not go 3-4 bets on a paired board wheras if he had the boat you would have gotten his whole stack.

Re: My worst mistake ever
Your worst mistake ever is calling on river for 1 BB for a total of $8? Not bad.
I don't even think it was that bad a call. The SB could have a had a single J or 89o ... |

Re: My worst mistake ever
How long until you realized you folded the straight flush as opposed to the smaller flush? You missed out on a lot of money there.
