I don't remember all of the details, but there are a bunch of hands that go something like this.

I limp from EP with A7s 3 more limp (including BB).
Flop [4sb]: T72 rainbow (none of my suit)
I check
Someone from LP bets
I fold
(Maybe I'm rock'n here, but 95% of the hands I folded would have lost a showdown and 95% of them got to a showdown.)

The alternate version of this is where it gets check around and the turn brings a K or a Q.

A few of the suckouts where when the turn brought a brick and I bet out, but someone in MP was playing 42o or something and hit 2 pair. I did give them a free card, but most would pay 1 sb to see the turn. I guess the best/worst thing about it is that I was never in good position to play middle pair. I feel better already.

Learn to become without tilt.

I'm not sure this is possible for me. I think that I need to learn to recognize it and be able to walk away (or take a break).
