I was reading Ken Warren's book on LHE. He had his starting hands broken down into categories. His suggestion for hands like J10s or KJo was "don't call two bets with these hands." I didn't understand "two bets." So, I'd be at the casino playing live 1/2 and it'd be 5 limpers to me and I'd look down at J10s. I counted the 5 limpers as 5 bets, so I'd throw it away cause if I couldn't call two bets I surely couldn't call 5.

When I first started online it was .25/.50 on Pacific Poker. I'd be in the SB and have Q2o. I'd call with any face-rag hand in the sb because the hand was "half good."
