Or really how bad should I feel
I appologised prefusley as soon as I done it
the oponent dIdn't  have a clue I felt so so bad at the time but after a while
I put it down to just a mistake
here goes

final table player a is raising every hand
blinds are 800 1600 run ante 200
I find ak suited I got 40,000 he got 60,000 ish

I flat call knowing he's gonna raise

he raises to 4,000 to play
I flat call trying to catch him and get paid


Flop 10-4-k two spades no help to me

here's the question

I'm first to act so I bet 2,500 looking like a steal
hoping he's gonna raise
he the says raise
he picks up a pile of chips all dominations
I really don't see how much
and throws over the line (goes quiet)

I look down and say I'm all in

he then says as do the dealer ect
he hasn't raised yet
aaaaaaaaahhhhhhh then I say wow ummmmm
to me it would look like I was pulling a stroke
luckily all the players know that's not my game
is this right
this is what happened at the tim I didn't think it was fair on him

he could either make the min raise then fold
or push the lot

he chose to bet the min and fold I felt real bad

opinions please

So he says raise and you say you're all in, he then raises the minimum and folds?

Hasn't he pulled a stroke on you?

Sounds like he said raise, threw in the chips to call and went to count out a raise, but before he could do that sofa king ships.  Sofa King will be held to the all in so the raiser has to state a raise amount and then decide to call or fold.  Obviously if they wanna get it in they can now just raise all in and turn the cards, however if he is gonna fold then generally they will min raise and fold.

Not a stroke unless you're doing it all the time, it happens a lot when people throw in the chips for the call and then count out the raise seperately

OP was confusing

its not a stroke - it a live misclick by you- you prob cost yourslef alot of chips

but it in no way changes the action other than the amount you would potentially win

You cost yourself some chips because he would have likely raised more than min.

Unless you're working with the guy to try and even out your chipstacks you aren't hurting anyone else

How is a T4K flop no help to AK?

I'm assuming he threw in the call chips first (this tilts me) and that's when you pushed. So it's just a standard out of turn bet. He can raise to whatever he likes and your shove stands. Seems like an honest mistake by you here. All you've done is potentially cost yourself some chips.

not had chance to read the op but always wanting to help, pls check the stroke association website.

"The symptoms of stroke or Transient ischaemic attack (TIA) include:

    * sudden weakness or numbness of the face, arm or leg on one side of the body
    * sudden loss or blurring of vision
    * sudden difficulty speaking or understanding spoken language.

A suspected stroke should always be treated as a medical emergency, as outlined in our FAST campaign. If you or anyone you know is experiencing any of the symptoms of stroke call 999."
