I could write an essay on this.

Your being too results orientated. It doesnt matter what happened after you go all in, if you win, lose, whatever, its the theory and the thought and the moves that are debatable.

In this situation we all feel i think that A8 is a mediocre hand.With a fair amount of action on the flop there would normally be an overpair out there, or a pair and a flush draw, or god knows what.

Simply put navuta, in my opinion you should do the following...

1 - Stop playing for one day.
2 - On the day, learn pot odds, starting hand values, everything you can,
3 - Get a poker book audio version in spanish/portugese (whichever u speak) and listen to it. It can only help.
4 - Come back, try what you have learnt.
5 - Lose less, or win because your more skilled, not because you get dealt better hands or get lucky.
Im doing all this, but in english.
I cant calculate every and each draw odd on everyhand. But I can calculate.
Like for example, we have 6 and J on hand, comes the 789 flop. We have 16 draws. Thats makes 20% based on number of cards.
So, I should not call any raise bigger than 20% of the pot.

Thats how is it done i think..
I know I still lots to learn.. I promise to study buddy ejjit.. hope u can always help me out like u do... just have little bit more pacience...
Thanks for all.
