Worst feeling

[redsoxsox]

Has to be misclicks. For the last hour Ive been setting up an image of a donk losing $30-50 on some Lag hands. Finally I hit a full house and what do I do when he pushes all in with some crap hand like top pair, I misclick and fold. Im starting to lose a lot of money cuz of misclicks.

Maybe you're jumpy. Why don't you condition yourself not to touch the mouse until an action has to be performed on the table?

But then he'd have mis-press problems [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Actually it only takes a second's hesitation before action to prevent misclicks.
A good way to do it is verbalize outloud what I am doing and the reason for doing it BEFORE I click. EX: "I have a full house and this donk doesn't, so I'm going to RAISE" This very brief pause is enough to stop my hand from folding. Idea stolen from "Psychology of Poker" by Schoenmaker (SP??)

NEVER leave you mouse hovering over the buttons - this is a classic way to misclick.

Having to move the mouse makes you concentrate more.

ugh...that's even worse.

I agree with moving the mouse away. I would also suggest not getting down so much. What limits are you playing at?

Yes, but "Best Feeling" is misclicking and then sucking out anyway.

There is a school to correct this problem. It is called Elementary School. LOL.

Man we have all done it. Misclick in a situation where you have the best hand. Don't you feel stupid when you do it. I know I do.
