So I decided to try some 2-7 single draw on pokerstars. On my very first hand I look down at an awsome starting hand (8c 2h 5d 7h 4c)... of course my dumbass misdrags the betslider and overbets the pot a little too much...

After doing that myself once or twice, i never use the slider any more. Now i either click the + button the desired amount of times, or more so, just type in the amount i want to bet. saves a lost pot or a possible huge loss. LOL

Pfft...

I don't have the hand history, but if you're playing .05/.10 NLHE, and you've built your stack up to $38, be VERY sure you hit the decimal point before your standard 35 cent bet....

Especially if you're UTG+1 with 66 and someone behind you wakes up with QQ
