Re: Big Pots
 

Thanks to everyone for your help, I definitely see everything much more clearly now. That hand was played on Pacific Poker (NOTORIOUSLY bad players), at a table with above 60% of players seeing the flop at a 5/10 game. I was wide eyed at a big pot and was blinded a bit. I was thinking in terms of the short term EV of hitting my hand, versus not hitting and I felt like it was worth a go. I was not thinking about the long-term EV. Now I understand that always playing a hand this way can be -EV. Thanks for the explanations
