POTD: Clicking outside the box.

Our poon of the day for August 7th misclicked his way into super poon-dom.

His name was Battaglia123 and this donk benefited me. Battaglia had just under 4000 chips in today's 3 buck tourney when I got dealt JA offsuit. I called a 3x raise in late position after 3 limps and flopped top pair (A 2 4, rainbow). Battaglia bets out 150 and I just smooth call. The turn is a J, and the moron bets out 500. I have 1600 chips left so I went all in. He insta calls, and I get worried that he might have the wheel. What does he show? 2 King offsuit. The poon called 100 from the big blind with 2K offsuit, and then bet his bottom pair aggressively. Then, he threw this excuse out there:

_the_panic_ said, "appreciate the charity"
Battaglia123 said, "that was the wrong button :("

Yeah, so a few hands later, I beat him on this hand too. Notice how he calls the river with K high.

Did you click the wrong button there too, you poon? You misclicked twice in one hand? Let me tell you something; your biggest misclick was hitting the "register" button before the tourney even started. Despite all the intellipoker idiots this morning, this guy takes the cake.

Here's the poon's (lack of) stats round-up:

In 15 career tournaments, Battaglia has a respectable cash rate of 0.00% with $0.00 in career earnings. Keep trying pal. One day, you'll misclick your way to a cash...


Chase is hitting up the casino tomorrow and I'm going to be out pretty much all day. Might do some late night tourneying, but don't expect much here tomorrow. Later poons.
