I have got caught in the act of not laying down a big hand. I was in a tournament at Catfish Bend Casino in Iowa and was dealt pocket Queen’s. I wasn’t paying enough attention to the other players at the table and went “All In” before the flop. Had I been paying attention and simply made a small bet instead of going all in, The Importance of Using a Fly Sheet I would have noticed that the posture of one of the other players had changed. He leaned forward and placed his hands differently on the table. I realized later that this signified he had a good hand. He ended up beating my pocket Queen’s with pocket King’s. It’s very rare but it happens. Thankfully, I was able to buy back into the tournament at that point and ended the tournament in 5th place.

I’ve also prevented myself from losing a hand as well. I had determined that one of my opponents had pair their 10 on the flop and the other I wasn’t concerned about because of their previous betting pattern. I had paired my 9 on the flop and I was able to determine after I saw the turn that he had a pair of 10’s.
