Message: [QUOTE="SpanRmonka, post: 6960720, member: 429759"] The first thing to change is how you feel about these emojis. Feeling teased, is the first thing to change. The second thing is feeling like you made a mistake, because of the result of the hand, or reactions of others. Its a total must in poker to learn not to care what anyone else thinks. You have to make the best decisions you can at the time. If after the event you review the hand and decide you made a mistake, then fine, but at this point there are no emojis!! I shoved 23o in a live game recently, on the FT, 5 handed. For context we were all short, I was in sb, bb was middle chip stack, and the massive chip leader was to his left, who I basically had zero fold equity against, whereas I did have a reasonable amount of fold equity vs big blind! If i do that online, its a classic spot to feel like maybe I get emojis launched at me, but I still think it was my best chance to gain chips in the next few hands, which I needed to do. I managed to luck box it, and hot 2 pair as he called with AJo and hot his A. He was disgusted, but I'm 35% ish to win the hand, and he will fold probably half his holdings. I didn't like him calling, and everyone seeing my hand, but actually it helped, as then the other players were very unsure what I was shoving with, I got 2 poor calls against my AK and AQ, and finished 2nd, would have won it, but my KK was beaten by a flush, then we chopped. If you don't make plays that may look like mistakes, then you are leaving opportunities to win chips on the table. Sometimes these moves will be considered mistakes by other people, sometimes they will just be mistakes, but you have to do it to learn!! Do not be worried about what players think! [/QUOTE]
