I thought I had already posted this, but I can't find it, so I'll post it again.

I really considered calling this. I had small blind, and it was suited. No one raised the blind. I might as well complete the blinds... Nah, it's a 72, I can't play that.

Game #539346585 - Tournament BigBuck - 200/400 No Limit Texas Hold'em - 2004/07/10-15:19:25 (CST)
Table "BigBuck 92" (MTT) -- Seat 6 is the button
Seat 1: wyman100 (12,075 in chips)
Seat 2: Apathetic4me (12,825 in chips)

Seat 4: wolfman 2 (679 in chips)
Seat 5: kayosad (285 in chips)
Seat 6: samiam1965 (8,090 in chips)
Seat 7: Humphrind (3,510 in chips)
Seat 8: spillage (2,705 in chips)

In hindsight. I don't regret throwing it away. It's just funny that I came so close to calling. But this has happened to me all day. I miss every flop I saw and would have floped great cards with the rags I folded.

I don't know what they have to say
It makes no difference anyway.
Whatever it is...
I'm against it.

I folded pocket threes because I would have had to call about 1/5 of my stack late in a tourney (raised into me) and the flop held two threes.

What made it worse was two guys went all in on the turn, both acting before me. I would have tripled up easy.

Ah well, that's poker.

I held pocket 6s late in a tournament. The blinds were raised and I was going back and forth from the call button to the fold button.

My mouse was on the call button and I said to myself, "Do I want to miss the flop..."

Then I'd move over to the fold button and say, "... or do I want to make my trips?"

Call button miss... fold button hit... back and forth for a while. I laughed at myself.

I called and missed the flop. Whoops!
