For me, it is definitely losing my internet connection or having the poker app crash right in the middle of a massive pot or a deep tournament run - and that has happened to me!!! It is the worst feeling when you are sitting there helpless watching your hand get timed out - has this ever happened to you during a major game and how did it turn out for you...
 
My worst nightmare is power outages; here in Venezuela, blackouts are common, and the worst part is that there’s no set schedule for them.

Also, losing the internet connection during a high-multiplier Spin & Go.
That’s why I usually have a backup mobile data connection ready.

I agree—losing the internet connection or the power supply is bad, especially if it’s the result of a massive bombardment. At times like that, I feel quite down.
 
I was playing $10 spin and gold on ggpoker and we where two remaining. I had pocket 10's and suddenly my screen froze. I tried my best to restart the App but couldn't make it in time. I won that from a freeroll but I was pained regardless
 
Probably getting rivered with a one-outer at a final table. I don't think there's much worse than that. Losing to someone with the exact same hand because they make a flush would also be pretty high on the list of worst things that can happen.

Yes same here for me or infact for majority of players.
Seeing yourself dealt powerful cards then getting frozen and timed out is a heart attack situation!
Committing your chips being a 90% favourite till the river card arrives and then getting stuck before you’re supposed to make that final decision and drag your opponent in is death!
