Thanks Kal. It did seem a little weak for a big turn.
You know, I think I came to this thread at just the right time.
I had seen it mentioned numerous times, and it's the only one I didn't jump to immediately. I had always found that a little strange, as I had jumped everywhere else on the spot.
While subconsciously ignoring this thread, I made all the mistakes it's possible to make. That's totally typical of me- I can never learn from other people's mistakes- only my own!
Had I found this thread earlier, I would most likely have dismissed all Jim's warnings and gone on to make the same mistakes anyway, and then resented this thread later, always feeling that it was telling me a big [b]I told you so! [b]
Now that I've come to the thread at last, I think(hope) I'm mature enough to let it all sink in.
I have already seen so many setups I would previously have jumped in on and lost miserably!
As an analogy, all my other mistakes and lessons have taught me the rules of holdem, but this thread has taught me the difference between queen nine off suit and pocket aces.
So glad to be here!
