Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6149584, member: 397965"] The most common form of tilt is to make bad calls or bluffs after losing, because we so badly wants to win. But becoming overly cautious, because we have been burned lately, is also tilt and just as detrimental for your results. If you really dont want to get stacked - yet again - then move down, until it no longer bothers you. You are ahead of draws and way ahead of AQ. If you raise, its a raise for value, and you want him to continue with those worse hands, so that you can win a bigger pot, when he does not draw out on you. Just calling is not nearly as bad now, as it was preflop, but this is still scared thinking, where your main priority is to aviod losing a big pot. Absolutely no. You still beat several hands in his range including AQ. Also to be able to bluff, you need to get better hands to fold, and which better hands is he going to fold now? You want him to fold aces? Two pair? Most players wont, so there is absolutely no reason to raise to get him to fold a better hand. It is true, that he sized down on the turn, but in my opinion it could mean a lot of different things: 1) He might be trying to set a cheap price with a draw 2) He might have a made hand that is scared of the flush 3) He might have the nuts and not want to lose his customer I typically try to avoid guessing ti much about, what my opponents might be attempting to do with a certain sizing. Instead I stick to solid fundamentals. Call or raise more, if they bet small and fold more, if they bet big. That is true but why are you so focused on him having this one particular hand? Running KK into AA is one of the least important things in poker. It happens to everyone at the same frequenzy, and everyone normally goes broke. And if they dont, they give up more value elsewhere. So just accept it, when it happen, reload and move on to the next hand. [/QUOTE]
