On line I wouldn't worry too much about people paying attention and stealing pots from you in hands like this. First off you probably won't be playing against a person long enough for him to get this type of read on you and if you do he will be a type of person that doesn't play many hands versus YOU who shouldn't be playing many hands as well so you won't come into conflict that often. Second sometimes you will have a hand and can punish them for this maneuver. Third, the VAST majority of poker players don't really care what you have, they are just looking at their hand and all else be damned. Good luck and don't be afraid to fold when you know you are beat:)

Ok, one of my bigger leaks is not being able let go of overpairs. Is this normally a fold on the turn except against the most maniacal of opponents? I see hands like this all the time and its often won with top pair, or maybe those are just the ones I remember.
