Wow PINOTTE.... That's a huge error to make. I bet you were gutted. It's such a shame that you couldn't convert it to a win as that would have been pretty good. Oh well, at least your pp freeroll tonight has started to rebuild that bankroll.
Posted by pinotte: I was sure in my mind that it was $0.50 that i did not look the or was distracted when the confirmation box came and i confirm.
Are they even in the same row (to misclick on)? Tough luck buddy, next time (hope not by mistake) maybe you will fair better on this level and take one down.
Ouch Pinotte, that must have hurt your bankroll there!
But try to see it on the bright side, you could have got lucky and hit a million. I agree that the button could be placed the other way around so that you can't missclick on a big one... Missclicks are always dangerous.

Wow Pinotte that is one hell of a bad misclick to have made....I feel your pain.Did you realise it was a $100 one while you were playing or after you had lost?Just a shame you didn't manage to win it...would've been a great story then.

I was surprize when i saw $200.00 for $0.50 and no deal winner takes all. So after the game i went see my BR and saw what i did.

Ouch. That was a big misfortune there. SO many wrong choices you could have done and you picked the worst. Wouldnt hurt trying icequeens idea. You never know, since they can see from your history that you are not playing these limits.

I like ICEQUEENACE's idea of complaining (though not necessarily complaining) to pokerstars and explaining what has happened and chancing your rm at possibly getting something back out of this unfortunate situation. The worst thing that can happen is they tell you to go away. Howevere, as long as you don't ordinarily throw in a the odd $100 shot, I am sure you could argue this was totally out of character and a true mistake.

Posted by IceQueenAce: complain to stars for the money back
Sorry IQA, he miss clicked, but pokerstars doesn't know that , as far as their concerned he wanted to play it. Complaining won't do any good, or every player that plays a big game , and loses ,will complain they miss clicked. This is just a hard lesson to be learned, be carefull when playing online, make sure you know what your clicking.

clash is right,theres many times I would use that for a rebate if I though I could.. but on the other hand if its out of routine then maybe its a possible lookback,but then its kinda swings and roundabouts, if you take a risk after betting small and lose then yo might try this...im more confused now than I was before....

I agree with crash i made a mistake PokerStars have nothing to do with it. If i had win the game or spin a very big amount and win i would have been very happy making the mistake but i lost and paid for. I just have to blame myself cause i did not look at what i was doing.
