Title: Unfortunate computer poker errors Post by: Dingdell on January 21, 2006, 05:25:27 PM Chip leader on PS freeroll to $500K gteed on Sunday. I prize - 14 players left. batteries on my mouse go (I think) so I run to change the battery.
Hole cards 6 9 o/s. Player goes all in for $1560. Blinds $25/$50. As i am changing my batteries the mouse somehow clicks on call and the rest is history - his pocket 9's stand up and I am wounded. The main wound was the other players asking me why I was calling.....and it took me a few minutes before I could answer as the mouse still wasnt working.....except to activate the "call any" button it was stuck on....... exit left..... Anyone else?!

UTG raises for half my stack so I click the raise-any box and go out with the dogs. I get back in to find that I'm sitting out (as expected) but that I have the number of chips I started with... checking the logs, someone else has moved in before me, thus negating my ability to raise and removing those little check-boxes :( Turns out UTG's KK beats MP's QQ without improvement. not big money but it didn't make me happy. |
