Yeah, I've mis-clicked here and there. The more tables you play, the easier it is to end up misclicking. What tilts me the most, is usually when I misclick, it's folding good hands pre-flop. It's always nice to see you would have lost the hand if you'd played though, makes it sting not so much lol.

Yes, I hate to even admit to it, but I've done this very thing on morre then one occasion. I've actually folded when I wanted to call and I've called allin when I wanted to fold. And of course I didn't get lucky enough to hit, just lose. It's called keep your hand off the mouse until your ready to play or something like that. Sorry to hear about this.

Ahh man that totally sucks. Yeah I've done it a few times in the past, no doubt I'll do it again But I use it more as an excuse when I've totally sucked out on someone with a pure trash hand haha, "oops wrong button. Sorry bud. " lmao
Hope it didn't tilt you too much and you still did ok in the tourney

LOL that is just to funny mate You and I both know that your statement is really ment to tilt them even farther over the edge.
I am sure it works well. It would not work on me however since I play with the chat turned off. However I might play with the chat on in our Xmas game.

yes, most of the time when play multitabling with width screen. when i click table " A " to go all in or fold suddenly table 'B" show and I click button at table "B". When play just 1 table I seldom do the mistake. Were you in hurry or multitabling, Teddy ? Next time your opp fold

Yeah it happens to all who play enough online poker. Especially if you play more tables the chances are big.
At pokerstars i sometimes play with tables overlapping so when its your turn they pop up. If you play 8 tables sometimes this can go wrong with a accidental double click.
I done a bunch of those like folding huge hands to calling an all in drawing dead.

More tables you play, more often it will happen. I also did it few times especially when I play 9 or more tables. Another problem that I find is that I need to change my monitor as with many tables it's sometimes hard to read cards. For example I get 68o and I think that I have 88 so I bet etc. However, more you play it's easier to still get money from such situation like 68o. Especially if you know your opponent.
Still the most important thing in such cases is to not to tilt after such situation. If you know that you will start to tilt after such event just take a break.

Haha you know it buddy Yeah you should be turning the chat on for the christmas tourney. It's not as tho it a bunch of random donks playing and talking chit. It's going to be familiar donks playing and talking chit. Just kidding good luck all
I am a bugger for pressing the check/fold button in anticipation of having to lay down a hand, then realising I am strong but because I am not paying attention I watch as my cards are folded in front of me.

It has happened for sure from mistake while sober, from mistake while drinking But it wasnt bad result all the times. And one of the first times it happened, was when i first started playing and i had the option that brings the active table in front, enabled. I was going to play on the table i had in front of me, and the time i clicked the other table came in front and the click went there. I was so mad

don't know why but i only mis-click the raise button- can't say this is very profitable or costly over the many times i have mis-clicked, i end up winning some odd hands, sometimes opponent folds to my re-raise, surely i lose some silly hands this way too. we are all humans, so we are prone to making mistakes imo
