Have you ever lost a huge amount of money by accidently hitting the "call any" button, and not having enough time to unclick it before someone shoved?

Ive come close so many times, It makes me feel uneasy.

I have never once in about ten or twelve years of playing online poker, had any reason to use this feature on any site I've ever played on.

Its totally pointless!

Slightly related: I've often accidentally made huge, seemingly idiotic calls when the game window ''pops up'' in front of something else that I am doing, like facebook etc and I accidentally click on call in the same split second!!!

Other players must have been wondering why I would call a straight and flush rich board with undercards!!!

Once, recently in a tournament, I finished all in pre-flop with 2-Q against K-K :mad:

I never use the call any button but hit the call button at the same time as someone shoving put myself in deeper than I wanted!

Nope but i folded aces and kings serveral times when playing zoom. Not that its such a big of a deal because most of the time everyone folds if your raise(especially when you have AA).

I've always wondered why poker sites feel they need to have this button. It's dangerous if accidentally clicked and there really is no reason to have it. I've misclicked on the all-in button a few times when clicking between screens, but luckily everyone has folded.

There have been a few times I have gotten involved in too many screens at the same time and I have mis-clicked because the time is running out. I find even 2 games at a time can mess me up.
