Default Trying to break away from \'the rules\'

10/20 PL. HU with an unknown, we've been playing 5 hands or whatever.

I have JJ. He completes, I make it 40 more, he makes it 115 more, I call.

I am never ever looking to fold here, in fact, I'm just worrying about how to get all the chips in the middle.

In the actual hand, he bets $55, I made it $325 and he called.

1800gambler says 'the hand is now over. so so over'.

Whilst I don't completely agree that I shouldn't put another dollar in, I really need to check this turn behind and perhaps call a smallish river bet/fold to a huge one.

In actuality, he checks the blank turn, I do a hefty bet, he moves in and I call. I lose obviously.

I just feel I need to break away from the 'don't look to fold sets w/ 100xbb rule' and start thinking a lot more about my opponents range of hands and the like.

I feel my game has got so sloppy.

Discuss.
