dunno exactly what to call it, but i figured that will do.


Recently i think im giving people too much respect. I see reraises, and i instantly go on the defensive. Just now i have JJ in the BB int he chips game, UTG limps, UTG+1 raises, SB reraises. Im figuring im racing a minimum of 3 overs, maybe im drawing to 1/2 outs. So i fold. Both push, both have AK, i fold the winner. Again.


Is this too cautious, or do many people overvalue certain hands (such as AK or JJ/TT maybe QQ)?

The bad beat is the fact i would have won had i played, so instead of winning 3k, ive lost 20, which is a bad beat as im down 2,980 from where i should be.

Thoughts?
