My cardinal rule, never throw away your cards until you are certain the hand is over and correctly rewarded.

Thats a rule I'm always going to try to remember.

Yeah, even though I've played thousands of hands at this casino, I still made a stupid move and just got lucky that he was a nice guy. The pot size was 75 dollars, so I'm certainly glad he was nice. Next time I see him playing, I'll offer to buy him dinner or something...

I did something similar in a 2/4 game in a 10BB pot. Dude had a busted straight and I thought he hit (it was late, and I was pretty new to the game still) so I flip up and then into the muck. Everybody saw I had the best hand but dude gets the pot and laughs and keeps it. I saw him on a 4/8 table after my skill had increased and busted him. I accept blame for my part, but dude was a douche.
