Hi I'm a new member although i have been browsing the forums for awhile reading the threads and posts of the members of the community. Anyway, I've been going to poker clubs and home games lately and thinking of taking my game to a higher level, but for some reason when I'm dealt Pocket Aces or Kings im so scared of getting cracked because there was a time where i lost over 400$ when i got dealt Aces 3 times in one night consecutivly losing my whole stack when i got all the money in preflop by 8 6 off suit who caught runner 8s on 4th and 5th and AQ who caught a flush on the turn and AK who caught 2 kings on the flop. Im playing on scared money and thinking my hand is going to be cracked, so now i tend to reraise over the top or raise insane amounts of money when i get dealt these hands thus not maximizing profits. Any idea on what to think of or how to play these big pocket pairs better? thanks in advacnce
