DON'T OBSESS OVER BLINDS
- You are going to have the blinds from time to time. It’s part of the basic poker rules. What’s not part of the rules, though, is the idea that you actually have to play because you’ve got the blinds. It’s fine to fold from this position – and failing to do so is one of those basic poker mistakes that take out plenty of players.
For most, this mistake comes down to sheer ego. You’ve put in the money, and you want it back. This is the sunk cost fallacy in action, something of which you need to be aware. If you’ve got a bad hand, you don’t need to play. It’s better to lose a little than to lose a lot, after all.
