Yeah, like the marginal hands in stud8 like split 9's and then justifying to yourself the call, or the raise. "What, I had great position, are you kidding me? I LOVE this hand in this spot. Pffft. Please."
Or going to 4th street in stud with jacks when you know the guy has kings.
Limping with A5xx in LO8.
These are the spots indeed that slip from memory yet there the ones that are most attributed to our "bad runs."
