Worst mistake?

I think the biggest mistake a player can make is not adjusting to his/her opponents. Rather than applying a "one size fits all" strategy, you should be modifying your play based on who's at your table.



Also, registering for a tournament and forgetting to show up is pretty dumb too.

several errors are candidates to be the worst error ,,, playing unconcentrated, not analyzing what is happening at the table at the moment, playing with fear, playing with sleep, I think it is a set of errors, that is why I think that several errors are candidates to be the worst mistake

It is possible to bluff when it is clear that the opponent has put together a good hand. This will result in big losses.

One of the worst mistakes, I usually make the same mistake, is thinking that your opponent is bluffing without seeing the flop, turn and river.

Worst Mistake?

Hello.
One of the worst mistakes, and it is one of many, is to go all-in with a small pair from the UG position pre-flop.

The most worst was i got Four of a Kind, My opponent got Straight Flush. :thefinger

The worst ... is surely to underestimate your opponent or the hand he is holding.

For me the worst mistake is to lose patience during a poker game, because you will start to make bad plays

Playing while in full tilt.

Play in a state of tilt and alcohol...

I have several options.
1. Lose patience.
2. Do not follow discipline.
3. Exceed the allowable risks.
4. Play drunk, insult others.

I think that one of the most expensive mistakes that players make very often is when a player bluffs without knowing how to do it !!! Sometimes it looks even funny)))

Totally agree. Without patience, and without concentration, the game is over quickly.

going all in with 100% of your bankroll without looking at your cards. also mucking your cards instead of turning them over, you'll be surprise. also if board is AAAA2 and opponent all in and you have 2,3 and you call. that would be pretty bad. over betting and giving away chips instead of small bets to get a feel at where you and your opponents are at.

The biggest mistake a poker player can make is to bet a lot of money on a game that he does not know and does not master properly.

Playing without focus will surely be a bad thing to ruin your bankroll.

Playing when you are tired, especially when you expect to play a long tournament.

Any mistake can turn out to be the worst if that mistake brings you to a sad end.

online poker.
I thought that I´d AA & did all-in.
The other player did all-in as well with AA.
However I´d A4.
I was kicked out.

worst mistake is to think that the best hand Pre flop will always win, in fact is a mistake I do over and over again! :banghead:

fold AA preflop

I believe that the worst mistake is the lack of a bankroll management system. This always leads to loss and frustration.

Worst mistake is unreaslistic Expected Value..

Poker has it's probabilities(expected value), example: AA preflop, EV is favorable(80%).
The worst thing is when you catch a few cards, and think it's magic, EV is in your favor today. Also, another bad mistake is the theory of "due"; I've lost a lot, I'm due to get some good outcomes, to balance it out.
