Recognizing Straight Boards(Major Leak Inside)

[Iceberg-Slim]

I don't have a leak in my game, I am pretty much missing a whole wall, I cannot see straight boards for some odd reason, and when I take a tough beat it is typically to a straight board, it's like my eyes just refuse to see them. This may be normal somewhat because it is prob the most difficult to see out of all the possibilities its just I am extreme, I over focus on pairs and flushes and try to outplay my opponent

LOOK at this potentially disasterous laydown I was prepared to make, but called on mistake....

I was pretty much defending my BB since everyone decided to limp in and with a hand as horrible as 9/4, I did not plan on flopping any thing worthwild, but forcing this tight table to lay down their hands

The 300 was me trying to buy the pot, not play the straight, cause I would of slowplayed that position, the River check was me accepting my fate, and when she shoved in on me, I meant to fold, but called on mistake.....

I need help plugging this hole in my game please....
