Re: Trouble with big pots.
Don't blow up pots with marginal hands.
Also, really take time to analyze before making a huge bet or call. Can you honestly tell yourself you've thought through the hand? Really analyze the pot size, compared to the villains range.
Most sites have a time bank, if you need extra time, take it before making a decision. With a 60 sec time bank, you might even have time to poker stove it before making your decision. i.e. compare his range to your hand and the board, look at your equity in the hand compared to the size of the pot and go from there.
The math won't be wrong, maybe take some of the feel out of the equation. If you're having a tough time, just reduce it down to math. But be honest with yourself when analyzing the villain's range. Don't include worthless hands, just to bump your equity enough to make a call, if you know there is no way the villain would have a given hand.
Basically, take your time. Do a full analysis, and do the math!
