When does it sink in?

I just sat down to start my nightly session. Not being in a groove yet and goofing around with trying to get another table going, I made the biggest error in poker.

I completely botched almost every street, but the "folding-on-the-end-for-one-bet" error makes me want to quit for the night. I am posting this because a) public ridicule may be best for me right now, and b) if there is anyone out there who still wonders whether this rule needs to be followed or not, let my moronic play be an example.

Let the "Dude, you shouldn't be playing poker" comments commence...........
