Exactly, this is what you have to do. I was [and still am a little] the same way with AQ, that hand was by far my least profitable hand. I started playing it very weakly, but realized that wasnt howI was going to fix the problem. I started going over my line with it and realized that I wasnt getting away from it when I shoul so now I make sure to make each decision more carefully, especially with this hand. Not the same exact situation, but just shows that simply because of a bad run of cards or whatever the situation is, you cant be worried about making the "right" move.
