I have a nasty habit of pretty much playing in the scared-to-be-beat-with-this-superstar-hand mode during MTT tournaments, and as a result shoving my chipstack in right away. I.e. with AK, KK, AA, etc.
When I bet 4xBB, most people will fold, but when I do get callers, I always feel pressured if there are face cards on the flop, or possible straights or flushes, and I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't have much mental toughness.
So yes, playing all in pre-flop with AA's hasn't been effective for me EXCEPT in the first 15 minutes of a freeroll that's completely public.
What kind of player am I? I hate how when it comes to on the bubble I play "scared" and fold so easily and I bet I get bluffed a lot... My heart starts beating a lot when the flop comes, and the turn comes, etc. when I have gone all in, or have put another person all-in. And, I clasp my hands together and say please let this flop be harmless. I find myself losing a ton of chips whenever I'm near the cusp of ITM in a freeroll, since whenever I seldom do get a really good hand I just make everyone else fold and just maybe earn a few blinds. Then, with almost all other hands, I fold so easily.
If I played in a live tournament, I can imagine myself trembling when making a big bet.
But anyways, I need help in that regard. It's like in basketball where you are "choking" and miss free throws in crunch time :/
