Be patient....

In poker it's often said that one of the biggest mistakes that a lot of  players make is acting too quickly. So when you find your self in a situation when you need to make an important decision, relax, breath and press your own pause button.

Then think about how game and the betting has gone to this point and of course just what your opponent might have. In other words take your time, you see more often than not in poker it's a marathon not a sprint.
