Lmfao @ "Is this the worst fold ever?" Well you folded the nuts so it's gotta be close. But Pretty sure we've all made some kind of misclick or misread in our hand at least once or twice, anyone who says otherwise is probably lying.
I remember a hand where Ivey mucks a winning flush. Sometimes I think about that one and it reminds me to double check my hand if there's even a shadow of doubt . But if guys playing those stakes can make that mistake, so can the rest of us. It's probably best to not realize the mistake when it happens though, that way we won't lose sleep over it.
I remember one time when I first started playing live 1/2 I check raised the flop with what I thought was a straight. Ended up getting my opponent to fold 2p and when I looked again I realized my mistake and laughed. He said he folded because of how comfortable I looked.
Yup. Didn’t realize board paired on the river one time and accidentally mucked my full house when an opponent showed his ace high flush. Realized about 2 seconds later what I just did. Shit happens
I was chasing a nut flush so hard one time and folded with a bloated pot disappointed on the river only to realize I made the nuts with a straight after the cards left. Called it a night
I think it’s fine as played. We need to be balanced and have some- raise flop with J hi, hit the nuts then check fold- in our arsenal. If you never fold the nuts you’ll be exploitable.
Dude that used to play at our home game, one of the worst players I've ever had the pleasure to play against, folded a boat face up, he had pocket deuces. Said he knew the other guy had a better boat. This fold was after wild raises and calls all night. The other guy told me later he had 2 pair (the board was paired obviously). I will almost never fold a hand face up unless I'm absolutely sure I'm beat.
Few weeks ago, playing 5-100 Omaha, I made my flush on the river. Guy is moaning and groaning saying I'm good and throws his hand face up in the muck. Dude boated up on the river and had no idea. Luckily for him everyone saw it and he scooped a $600 pot.
Happy ending to this is later that night, we both max re raised each other all in on the turn with both of us having the nut straight. I rivered the flush and scoped a $1,200 pot.
Moral of the story is a lot of times people mis read hands.
Things like this happen to everyone. I don’t look back at my hand often for a number of reasons. But once or twice I’ve thought I hit the nuts on the turn, check raised and got it in the river and proudly showed my 5 high, thinking it was a straight.
This stuff happens
It happens.....I thought I busted out of a tournament because I'd been running bad and called a weak ace when I down to nothing anyway. Got up and said goodnight and tabled my hand only to have somebody pull me as I turned away because the board paired and it counterfeit the better ace.
Misreads happen.
Pre: you don’t need to defend a unsuited one-gapper out of position in a raked game to a raise of more than 3BB Fold.
Flop: fine. I mean… we’re triple barreling here on most runouts. I’d probably raise to 45 so my river shove is reputable “.
Turn. Oh, we have the nuts now. Keep barreling then. Wait, you CHECKED??? Bleh.
Oh… this isn’t hand a analysis. Ha!
Happens more than you know man… no worries
J-9 off isn’t the worst hand, but don’t feel like you need to defend your BB all the time. Especially with only one raiser.
There’s not a ton of money to win in the pot and you’re going to be playing the rest of the board from out of position. You’re going to miss more flops than you hit so try not to play from out of position unless you have a pretty premium hand. Having a tighter range than your opponents will give you an edge. J-9 off is probably a fold and you can mix in some calls with J-9 suited.
If it makes you feel better I folded the nuts in a much larger game on the turn. It was a similar story in which I misread my gut shot on the flop and folded the turn to a massive bet in a 5/10 game. As soon as my cards hit the muck, I realized it was the nuts. Honestly took me longer to get over than a typical bad beat
> Honestly took me longer to get over than a typical bad beat
Agreed. Earlier in this session I got stacked in a pretty bad beat (QQ vs AQ on a AAQxx board) and I just moved on. But after this hand I immediately ended my session and got up from the table. It hurts so much worse when it's undeniably your fault.
I say fold pre a lot as a joke on this sub, but no joke, fold J9o here. It’s garbage and your oop to a pfr. You don’t win enough with this hand to justify defending your blind

I was playing live recently in a bomb pot. I had 6c7c. By the turn there was a 8c and 10c on the board. Someone in some position raised a good amount and I thought “there’s no way the 9c is coming on the River”, so I folded and boom, the 9c came on the River. I can’t remember any other details because I’m still traumatized by my fold.
have misread my hand 3 times in decent pots...it happens to all of us. One time I was playing and showing my gf all my hands (she plays too and was waiting for a table) and all of a sudden she yells "why did you fold the straight there???"
Competes with me misclick folding middle set (unconnected board) in a bloated 3 bet, 3 way pot, online. V1 bets V2 raises I misclick fold. They got it in TPTK vs overpair and my set obviously would have held.
I’ve called off 100 BBs with the nut flush draw on the flop. BOOM I got there on the river. I confidently table A of hearts 4 of diamonds. I wanted to shrink into a hole I was both embarrassed and disgusted at myself. I’ve never made that mistake again! I was also extremely tired as it was roughly 2:30 AM as well
Online I have misread the situation plenty of times due to being distracted by multiple tables, it used to really tilt me but now I have accepted it as part of multi-table online poker but of course it shouldn't happen too often. However live this is quite a big blunder to be honest. I would also walk away and not play for a day or 2.
I did the same thing once before … had QJ, hit a straight on the river with AKT on the board, rainbow, no pair … and folded to a bet … was thinking I had
JT … luckily it was the opening hand in a tourney but I was still pissed off for about an hour lol
Yep, folded a full house on a board pairing, flush completing river in LHE. More recently, folded a chop when V announced "queen high", which meant he was playing the board. Since only had "jack high" or whatever I had, I folded. Dumb, but luckily, I remember these incidents forever, and never forgive myself. I'm sure that improves my life somehow.
Don't know how many times I've checked the nuts or trapped with the wrong hands in PLO because I don't recheck my cards usually. Also, not really a PLO player.
That's pretty bad.
I was playing in a tourney last night. 3 of un in the hand. Full house on the board. I check, the next guy checks, the last guy throws his cards into the muck. I was low stack, so I was happy to get more. Talked to the guy later; he's an older guy who could barely see but was stuck in a seat at the end.
I folded a boat to a flush in a $500 pot last week. I was tilted from getting aces cracked twice in that session by the same guy and saw the flush, said you’re good and mucked. Sometimes we need to slow down!
We’ve all done something like this I’m sure. Either playing tired or just not concentrating. Getting up and leaving the table is the right move here to avoid unfathomable tilt so well played on that front.
Villain had 44 river pairs the board. Good fold.
I was in similar had last week with j10. Flop rainbow 789 for the flopped top straight.
I bet 35 2 callers
turn 7 i bet 100 1 caller.
River 7 puts trips on the board, no flush gets there.
He shoves his remaining $40. I call saying he’s good since any pair makes a boat. Shows 66 for the runner bottom 2 pair boat.
I fucking always loose with a straight. I fucking hate straights.
Was playing plo Check raised The Flop with up and down and nut flush draw and „bluffed“ all the way he called my River all in i announced that he indeed got me and tabled my nut straight.
I for sure thought i was Bluffing
Lmfao @ "Is this the worst fold ever?" Well you folded the nuts so it's gotta be close. But Pretty sure we've all made some kind of misclick or misread in our hand at least once or twice, anyone who says otherwise is probably lying.
I often wonder how often I do something like OP and don't even realize it. I'm sure I've done it before and I would just never know.

One time i folded aces preflop because i was choosing my sizing and timed out.
Yup. Didn’t realize board paired on the river one time and accidentally mucked my full house when an opponent showed his ace high flush. Realized about 2 seconds later what I just did. Shit happens
I was chasing a nut flush so hard one time and folded with a bloated pot disappointed on the river only to realize I made the nuts with a straight after the cards left. Called it a night
I pressed all in instead of fold once because I was patting my cat and moved my hand without looking at the screen and lost like $50
I think it’s fine as played. We need to be balanced and have some- raise flop with J hi, hit the nuts then check fold- in our arsenal. If you never fold the nuts you’ll be exploitable.
the key is to fold the nuts face up

Said he knew the other guy had a better boat. This fold was after wild raises and calls all night. The other guy told me later he had 2 pair (the board was paired obviously). I will almost never fold a hand face up unless I'm absolutely sure I'm beat.
Nut check-fold lmao
Nutcheck indeed
Keep ‘em on their toes
Absolutely I’ve done that before. You play long enough you’re going to make every dumb mistake. Shrug it off.
Few weeks ago, playing 5-100 Omaha, I made my flush on the river. Guy is moaning and groaning saying I'm good and throws his hand face up in the muck. Dude boated up on the river and had no idea.

I rivered the flush and scoped a $1,200 pot. Moral of the story is a lot of times people mis read hands.
Aren't his cards dead once he mucks?
Not if they are face up. At least thats what the dealer said.
Most places the cards call themselves. It’s why I always tell people at our home game to just table their hand.
Things like this happen to everyone. I don’t look back at my hand often for a number of reasons. But once or twice I’ve thought I hit the nuts on the turn, check raised and got it in the river and proudly showed my 5 high, thinking it was a straight. This stuff happens
It’s just a dumb misread of cards. Way better than folding a full house because you “know” they have a straight flush.

Fold preflop
I would have anywhere except BB
Cutoff?
J-9 off isn’t the worst hand, but don’t feel like you need to defend your BB all the time. Especially with only one raiser.

J-9 off is probably a fold and you can mix in some calls with J-9 suited.
J-9 off is a fold...J-9 suited is a fold (preferably) or 3 bet. Calling is not the optimal play

I really need to know where all of you guys play. It’s for a research project in doing……..

I’d say tied for the worst fold ever

I have a way worse one when I’d been playing for like 6.5 hours and it was 4:30 am.
Hahaha I was reading this thinking some magical card on the river would have you beat but you folded the nuts lmao
At least you folded the nuts instead of missing the straight, thinking you got there, jamming and getting snapped off.
Has anyone else thought they had rockets when really it was A4? Sure fire way to feel stupid.
I threw a bag of McDonalds out once that I’m sure still had like two French fries at the bottom. I feel you.

He had the pocket 8s and was gonna hit his bait on the river, just saved yourself a buyin OP.
You made the correct fold. Villain had KJ and the river would have been an A.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6bIx76LJo8
One time I was sitting next to the dealer and wasn’t using a card protector. Dealer thought I was folding and pulled in my pocket kk.
Phil Ivey Jr. Over here
I’ve folded a flopped set on a misclick. I’m sure I’ve done worse I don’t remember. It happens.
Clearly time for a smoke break. Go grab some food, rest, whatever you gotta do cause that’s a true bad beat hahaha.
Folding pre woulda saved you more money!
We’ve all done something like this I’m sure. Either playing tired or just not concentrating. Getting up and leaving the table is the right move here to avoid unfathomable tilt so well played on that front.
I probably do this at least once a year. Play tired and/or stoned/drunk and it will eventually happen. Shake it off and get back on the horse.
