Folded the royal flush.....gutted

[blueday]

I know a lot of players chase flushes with any two suited cards but I generally try to avoid chasing/fishing for flushes unless I have top starter cards like AK suited......you can see my folded hand centre screen under the result of the hand......how gutted was I when I folded the royal flush.....   Have you ever folded a great hand?

I just threw away $16,000 if it makes you feel any better...  :-\

What happened then??

nothing...I do it so often it doesn't phase me.  I need someone to knock some sense into me.

OMG - I would be so upset I don't think I would be able to play again.  I get upset if I lose 5 bucks let alone $16,000.   Which site was this and I assume it was a "ring" game so what was the betting level?  How did you lose it?  Was it on a bluff?

Hey Blueday, I have been so busy playing all week, I haven't had time to get back to you.  No, not a ring game..actually right now I mostly either play slots or video poker.
Mostly video poker. I am very good at it.  I usually make so much money, but then I just spend it all back.  I went thru my trans. one month a couple months ago...$360,000.  I should be a zillionaire. 
This week I deposited $50. Monday. hit a straight flush playing at $10. a hand, so I made about $300.  Within 4 hours I had it up to $4000.  The next day I played the slot "twister" and won $11,000. The rest of the week it was up and down, till it was
DOWN :...They really do need to stop that reverse withdrawal process.  All and all I went thru about $18,000 this week too, but I always win, and it doesn't seem real to me.  The way I figure it, I really only lost $50.

You must be really good however I get where you are coming from but surely it would be nce to withdraw a bit and make a bit of a profit?  If you decided to withdraw enough to buy yourself something nice or have a holiday on it but leave enough in to play with - surely that would better. 

[nalgenie]

yes, truly I need help!  I have taken a few withdrawals for a few thousand, but

nothing like what goes thru my hands on a daily basis.  I just never cash out.

I love to play.  When I do go on vacations, I always end up at some casino somewhere.   :

I would like to go to Monte Carlo, and play, that would be nice.
