This is a great example of a case where slowing down is either slightly correct or very incorrect. Don't stop betting and raising.

This is a great example of my struggle adjusting to the pace of limit. It's an easy decision but I felt rushed and bolloxed it. Yesterday I played 10-150 and made two good laydowns with two pair, but the pace of that game is so slow I didn't feel any pressure, took my time, and thought the hand through. Hopefully as I get more experienced with 20-40 it will help.

To me this is always a funny thing that comes up from limit players.
It's almost as if they are embarrassed to take there time. SLOW down... there is no shame in taking a couple extra seconds to evaluate your decision and re-play the hand in your head.
If you slow down and start to take better lines... eventually it will all come as second nature... but in the mean time you maximize your win rate by NOT feeling guilty about slowing down the game for 10 seconds.
