My biggest leak is folding to raises thinking i DONT have the odds to call but in reality i do.
Don't forget thatb you also have implied odds: if you make your hand you may possibly win more chips from your opponents than he already put in the pot.

Estimating your pot odds is an important part of the game. Read all you can find about it in the articles section of FTR. Sklansky's and Harrington's books also detail all that very well (my personal preference goes to Harrington's books).

Yes this is a very good example taipan. I think if I remember that in that situation it is only correct to call with AA or KK (or QQ if opp range is really wide).
