Playing at my local poker room (notorious for fishes), a £1/1 cash game.

Had pocket 10's, got my set on the flop. (10s 5c 2d)

Turn shows an Ace

Villian calls my raises on each street

River shows an Ace (

Now, and I don't know why, I think I only have a set of 10's, and if he has an Ace, he's got me beat. So I check, he bets £25 and is AI.
I curse in my head and lay my hand down in a bit of of a huff, accidentally exposing my cards in the process. The table is shocked and asks me what I put him on, It then dawned on me what I'd done. Villain shows 99

I was so mad with myself and zoned out for 10-15mins, but now it doesn't matter because i've realised stuff like this is only a problem when I don't learn my my mistakes.

I left with 3x my buy-in anyway :f_cool:

Anyone else done anything similar?

Definitely never happened to me, i find it hard to understand how can you missread the hand strength, but after all i am a mathematic thinking man, so that explains things.

Pretty sure that it happens to a lot of people at least once per life :tongue:

sounds like an epic fail to me. that board is so un-cordinated I would expect him to call multiple streets with overpairs or top pairs if we never expect him to float, and reraise bottom set or better either on the flop or turn, if villain is aware of texture.
