Villain's stats was VPIP 22, PFR 10, AF 1.7 over 58 hands.
I really, really need your help, guys.
I knew I should have folded... every indicator was there to tell me I was beaten. The raise on the Turn... the shove on the River... even Villain's passive AF was telling me I was beaten. I was putting even putting him EXACTLY on either 55 or JJ, and my whole mind was literally me ordering me to fold.
And yet, I still called... that feel in razor's edge that he might be "doing it with KK or worse". That I NEEDED to be sure.
So many reasons to fold... and yet I still had to see. This kills my game, my self-esteem. I want it to stop, it is most probably on of my biggest leaks. My mind knows it, I repeat myself time and time and time again to fold in such situation... but when the time of decision I still find a reason to call.
Please give me anything, a smack behing the head, a trick, a tip, a method, anything to make this need go away and help me fold when I should fold!
