What was the riskiest move you've made in poker and how did it turn out? Do you regret it or do you think it was a wise decision?

It's always about going all in, with pocket pairsz specially queens, and it always turns out badly.

I've been playing poker for over 8 years, and I have to say that playing poker is always a risk. But I'm a fairly conservative player and I play quite tightly, I don't take unreasonable risks. Nevertheless, I take risks every time I play. That is, in my case, it's difficult to talk about any major risk, since such risky situations occur literally every day.

bluffing is always a risky move, I already put a 23 on the button, it passed

Probably in every tournament you need to make risky moves, and more than once, you won't remember them all.

It's always risky to bluff against 4-5 players on the board. But in case of success, it is always enjoyable to show your cards to the whole table that your combination is “9-high” on the river. :love:

a risky chance is when you play beyond your bankroll, I played like this in heads-up for $100 and you know what, I haven’t seen a single success

Poker is a risky game. I think one risky move is when I deposit my own money to play poker.

This happened recently. I was sitting at a 2/5/10 table with about $2400. Drunk Maniac in +1 makes it $20 and I raise the BTN to $60 with JTs. The blinds fold and DM shoves AI for ~ $800. He had been blind raising every orbit but I hadn't been paying attention this time so I asked the dealer if it had been a blind open. The dealer wouldn't say but DM said that it had been a blind raise but he had looked at his cards before shoving. This was the third time he had shoved in on me, each time I had folded and each time he had showed a worse, virtually any 2 cards hand. I did have a solid battle hand but any Ace King or Queen is technically ahead. Still I thought my hand had a lot of equity against his nearly infinite range and I was sick of getting shoved off the best so after a pretty short tank I pulled the trigger. We both showed immediately, he had Q3o. The Jack came right out on the flop, it held and I took down a nice ~$1700 pot. Kids, don't try this at home.

I don't remember which was the riskiest move, because we are always taking risks... I'm an MTTS player and I believe that for Cash Game players this question is easier to answer...
