Gut Instinct> Friend Or Foe?


Recommended Posts

You know what I mean...Your head is telling you to bet, but you fold becuase pot odds are not good, yet your card hits on the turn. Implied odds not factored in or a Jedi-like sense of what's to come? Or, your gut says fold and, yet, you play into a pot for whatever reason, hit middle pair, screw up your board read and lose a no brainer you shouldn't even be in?Discuss...or flame, whatever.

Thx, Turd, I can always count on you for a two-sided, backhanded, double-dealing response. When are you going to have your ribs removed so you can give yourself head?Anyone else want to weigh in? :-)

I thought it was pretty straight forward, to tell you the truth.P.S. I'm wicked limber, and I'm hung like a manatee. I don't need to remove any ribs.

You can feel whatever you want to feel in your gut. The math doesn't lie. If you make -EV plays because of gut feeling, you are on tilt. If you do it regularly, you're a donk. Truth hurts soimetimes.

it's a mix of both.i strictly play HU NLHE right now. so i'm doing a lot of basic math in my head and trusting my reads and reacting.I have to follow my reads when playing...gut or whatever you want to call it. It comes thru a means, and yea...it's not that "ohh, i think my flush is gonna hit..i have a feeling..."- Jordan
