sam555   Finland. Nov 12 2006 14:51. Posts 13 Actually more I think about this hand more I realize how badly I played. Simple put I was pot and hand committed and just couldn't let it go when I should have. I wanted villains money too bad. Bad play. One thing that could explain my stypid call is that until lately I have been playing limit and in that enviroment that would have been good call (or even raising to buy cheap showdown if river was blank). My limit style is quite aggressive and sometimes I don't adjust to pot ods properly against big raises.   Last edit: 12/11/2006 14:59
