Seat 10: mebadnodonut (big blind) mucked [Js Jh]
I have a bad habit of shutting down with big pocket pairs. It always seems that whenever I have a high pocket pair someone always has a set or higher pocket pair. In an attempt to be more aggressive but get paid off with a lower pocket pair, I allowed him to lead the pre-flop and flop. Any suggestions on what I could have done better?
