i started this thread cos i felt really bad after felting a old lady at the table earlier today. she looked about 70ish, was leaning heavily on a cane, helped by her granddaughter. u know the type, with a heavy cardigan, big glasses and snow-white hair.

first hand she was in, i was on the button with QQ, and raised her bb, she called. to cut things short, the board ran out Q428K, rainbow. i bet every street and she called my all-in at the end. i showed the set of queens and she turned over 5 3, saying in a weak voice, 'straight'. of course, there wasnt a straight on board. and she was so sad when the dealer corrected her that all she had was 5 hi.

it was a big pot, 800bucks. but i never felt more terrible when she stood up slowly and turned to hobble away with her granddaughter. i couldnt concentrate anymore after that and left.

now, im still thinking bout it. i know it wasnt my fault that she misread her hand. but the look on her face, the whole image, i dunno how to put it. i just feel so guilty.

poker's a cutthroat game. no room for emotions. i understand that. but... is it wrong to still have a conscience when playin poker....?
