the hand is like in 1:45:00 or something like that on stream.
player checks back and immediately claims misclick, pretty weird

No misclicking allow.

Sites should be required, by law, to permanently ban any poker player who has misclicked.

Iam to stupid to find the hand. The stream is live right now, so I guess u mean 1:45:00 after it started, which at the moment when it's running (3h) would mean roughly 1:15 from beginning but I couldn't find it there.

Can u link with specific time frame? It's possible to share utube Vids with starttime

Wow that's crazy, what is the standard penalty for when this happens live?

He might have been balancing his ranges.

Life tilt here. He misses value with the nuts versus 4th nuts and takes the chip lead 5 handed. Top two stacks have around 2/3 of the chips. Hero finishes 5th.

If they were colluding they could have just gone bet/fold.

Have you ever played a game with your mouse? Misclicks happens to the best at random times. For example lately chess world champion who is also by far the best in all kind of internet chess (from bullet to rapid) misclicked in a winning position in a televised tournament (so no distractoins, youtube on the other screen etc).

Thats true but I still think its worth it to discuss if there should be a penalty in place for this kind of situation

It looks like a tremendous case of colluding but then it doesnt make any sense. As said they could have just played big bet and fold. Folding 7 high flush there looks really reasonable.

Still dont understand how the missclick can happen there tbh.

But i dont think this is a case of collusion. if it is, its really dumb one.

This might look very different if the river wasn't a heart, but under the circumstances he may have missed on the odd 6-8 million chips here and Cheong even might have folded on the river. What's more, the two of them still would have been the chip leaders.

He probably made an honest mistake and that's all there is to it.

Just to reiterate, this thread is worthless.

Just a mistake. Turkey1 guy calling him with 95 off to eliminate him from tourney was pretty funny. Would of been great if turkey1 typed misclick for the needle

I guess mistakes do happen and misreading a hand is easily done,

But couldn't software be easily designed to give a "beep" cannot check/call when you have the nuts on the river and last to act and not allow the check/flat call etc.

Only thing is this is kinda telling the person playing what hand they have and not sure is that fair either.
