Default Re: I made a bad fold and am beating myself up about it

First of all, the fact that he showed you the KK is not the reason you should know this was a bad fold. I don't want to start spreading strategy to the psych forum, but getting 4:1 on this river is an obvious call and I assume you already know that. (Actually there may be an argument for a raise.)

The best way to stop beating yourself up over these kinds of one-off mistakes is to simply post the hand for discussion in SSNL. (Leaving off your river decision and the fact that he showed his hand after the fold.) That way you know you are focusing on correct long-term play and not short-term individual events.
