Ever hit the all in button by accident early in the tournament, have three callers, and win with your crap hand? This happened to me. I ended up netting 7,000 in chips. But, the victory seemed a little empty. I was just lucky and if I won the freeroll that play will keep reminding me that I didn't win by skill. I didn't win the freeroll so I stopped harping on it.

Never done it in a tourney but I've had the cat when he was a kitten climbing on the keyboard and he hit a button called a allin in a cash game with a A,x. Turns out i had the best hand preflop and it held. I was freaking for a second. Afterwards i used it to my advantage peolpe thought I was really loose and got a couple callers two hands latter bullets and more than tripled up in less than 4 hands.

Not quite but similar

Very early on in a sng a couple of players had limped pre-flop and holding Q-10 i thought a limp was worthy of a look but inbetween one player limping his 10 chips and my call i hadnt realised the previous player had gone all-in :eek:

So i had pressed call thinking it was just 10 but in fact it was for 810 :eek::eek:

Turns out he had KJ and i hit a Q on the flop and knocked him out :D

Around the table, players where saying along the lines of nice call, nh etc.
I sheepishly thanked them, lol :D:D

I hate it when you go to limp in by calling the blind, and in the second before you click call, the player before you goes allin, and you call it by accident.

I did that once with something really crappy like 7/2 or something like that. I don't remember my pockets, but they were baaaaad. What I do remember is that I made a fullhouse! :p I told the guy (who had a nice hand pre-flop) what happened...yeah, it didn't really help. :laugh:

T1, believe this happened to me in one of our nightly series games & someone at table told me about disabling the allin button. Haven't had it up on screen since. Have had others say this happened to them the last two games I played today.

i remember on betfred as well, i had the big bet warnings on. If i bet a lot, then it would warn my and ask me if i was sure. One time on a turbo table this warning cost me a ton of money as i had no time to call

yeah I remember a time way way way back.. I thought it was to call and I called an all in with like q,4 off suit to win... I just thought it was a push by the blind because of the blinds we were having.. so 2X the raise in the sb.. I hit call but I won.. I felt like an arse for winning but it was a win cause I wasn't paying attention

Yeah Titan has a disable the allin button. With the way my cats like to climb on my keyboard its a good thing to use. I especially like it when they walk on it and hit enter. Makes for a nice message for people to figure out.

LOL, nothing like your cat deciding it's time for all your chips to go into the middle.

I have done this so many times it isnt funny, especially multi-tabling. Most often everyone folds and I get the blinds and a faster beating heart.......
