Hey Dave,
I don't want to sound like some zen master, but if you stop thinking this way, it might help!! All you are doing is putting negative thoughts and energy out there.....
But FWIW, if you check that turn because of the flush draw, you gotta be prepared to lay down on a river shove....(although in the rebuy period, the rules do change a fair bit)....
Yeah fair call mate.... I do remember you saying you try not to have the thought of losing when you believe your hand is best starting hand.
BTW...The hand against gmatical wasn't in rebuy it was the second hand I showed

Re: Rocket powered advice needed
Sorry, disregard the rebuy comment.
Actually, it's more about a state of mind than any particular hand being in front. If you keep saying to yourself that your aces are going to get crushed, I believe that you are just bringing it on! (and we have both witnessed the carnage!!)...
See you tonight mate.

Re: Rocket powered advice needed
Tonight I saw someone fold aces on the flop to an all in which was only half the pot.

Even on the bubble it would have to be one hell of a sick flop!!

I've seen that plenty of times. Basically comes down to your read on the other 2 players (and the read on UTG is: He aint very good!!).....
