Re: misread my hand, winner mucks
I believe Robert's Rules say if you intentionally miscall your hand and your opponent mucks, your hand may be forfeit. (The lowball rules specifically state that your hand is dead, while the holdem rules only say may be dead.) Of course it's pretty difficult to prove intent.
Considering that it was a tourney, I think OP "dropping" $20 was a solid gesture. Good on ya, trying to make the best of a crappy situation.
