The worst hand you have ever played?

I think this is quite close: 2 years ago, after and few double ups.

Before I learnt Bankroll mgt: ( this hand made me think about changing my ways )

$5/$10 Game:

This particular player had been been bullying for 25 hands. Raising, raising and re-raising. regardless. I had had enough. Although this was the wrong hand to do it with though. ( unless very very lucky )

Hero: 4,4: BB.

Villian raised to 40
Hero Raised to 80
Villain raised to 150
Hero Called. ( pot 300)

Flop 6, 8, 2 ( rainbow )

Villian raised 250
Hero ( fed up with this constant raising ) - all in $750.


Villian called.......ofhpooh - why og why did I do that!!!

Turn 7

River 5

I win with straight. Villian had A,A.


Basically I let my emotions take Over. I was on some kind of stupid criuade/tilt. I would have lost 1/2 my bankroll on a 11% shot.....

I was in shock after this game and realised what I fool i was. I turn the PC off and did not play for 3 weeks.

I think this hand changed the way I look at poker and the way I play. I studied 2 books cover to cover and learnt about bankroll mgt. Luckily have been nowhere near this multitude of errors since.

Has anyone else got a major bad hand that they regret or has turned their poker around.
