I got it, thanks.
I am a software engineer, so I spend alot of time working out math algorithms. I also like the stock market, so I spend alot of time "calculating odds" there too. I think I look at the pot the same way I do stocks. It doesn't matter how much I "invest" in each betting round. If I start the hand with $100, bet a total for the hand of $50, and win a pot of $150, then I doubled ( 2:1 ) my investment.
I just need to get out of that mindset when I play poker.
