It seems that one of the most common mistakes I see people make online is holding onto pocket pairs for too long. I see a lot of folks with small to mid pairs, (say 44 - 99) keep chunking out chips after the flop has come up with an A-Q-8 or something like that. They don't have a set and there are at least two overcards out there, meaning there is a real good chance that somebody else has hit a higher pair. And yet I see people continuing to make big bets or call big bets with what amounts to the third and sometimes fourth-highest pair possible, not to mention that the people they are playing could even have a higher pocket pair themselves. How long will you guys and gals hold onto pocket pairs without hitting a set?
