The only one that really doesn't work for me is the last one. I'm not a big believer in lucky streaks, and sometimes I'm inclined to make my own action if things are going too slow and I'm getting low in chips. I'd rather go out swinging than go out as Broomcorn's Uncle.

However, I agree completely with the central theme of your post: Patience! As long as you have a decent stack, patience will get a player through until the cards hit. If that player is too short-stacked, though, patience sometimes isn't enough.
