I can relate to Junior’s story below. I have been there too many times to call it a beginner’s mistake. It’s like when Homer keeps touching the hot pot and goes “ouch” only to touch it again and say “ouch” only to touch it again…
For me, I find that point #3 is the key one. There comes a point in the night where one person is down and all the old men say to themselves “I have all the time in the world to sit here and wait for him to give away the last of his chips. I figure I get about 1/9 of his stack and I will wait all night for that if I have to….and I ain’t gonna play with anything short of the nuts."
