How Long Do You Take to Make Your Decisions? (Online)

Devemos prestar atenção à gestão de banco de tempo. No início dos torneios, não perco tempo em decisões fáceis, especialmente em folds, muitos jogadores valorizam folds para representar uma mão, e no futuro eles acabam desperdiçando valioso time bank em estágios posteriores do torneio, onde as decisões se tornam mais difícil.

A few seconds thats where i have to slow down maybe and think a little more to make a better decision. specailly when big money its infront of the line

We should pay attention to time bank management. At the beginning of the games, there is no time for games, especially in folds, many players value folds to represent a hand, and in the future they end up wasting valuable time bank in later stages of the tournament where decisions become more difficult.

I usually need a few seconds and when the situation is more difficult a few more!

To be, or not to be: that is the question!

I look, I estimate, I decide - no more than a couple of moments.
But, sometimes, I can specially draw time out of harm.

I guess this would depend on a few factors. Early on I'm usually pretty quick with my decisions. Also if it's more than just heads up I'll take a tad bit longer. Later in the tourney I'll take a lil longer as well. But usually never hit my time bank.

3-5-10 seconds and it all depends on the situation in the game .

If the player constantly thinks for a long time, and then makes a big bet, then it can be both a value-bet and a bluff. And if we notice that after long meditations, so much he puts mostly with a bluff, then we can more often open it using this temporary hint.

For me it depends on which poker phase I am.
In the beginning and in the middle I leave myself only a few seconds, especially when I tend to fold.
At the end of an MTT at Finaltisch I try to give me ca. 20 seconds.

This is correct, but you can sometimes "stolen" a little, do not play monotonously for an opponent, make him think himself why you change time intervals. Do not always play the same.

very quickly, 5 to 10 seconds

I've played enough poker to assess the situation and play accordingly, roughly about a second or 2. If i'm late in a tournament or near the bubble, i'll take about 5-7 seconds to play because one mistake could cost you.

fast i hate ppl who take for ever dont know what to do

Depends on my hands and position but usualy when a player take times to call its because he have nothing and try to bluff you. Snap call and raise mean a lot in net session. For me I try to take the same time for any hand. About half the tine.

I normally take the decision right away, maybe 5-10 sec. of thinking but I should probably invest more time in the decision-making because you can take so much more information into account but when you have more tables open, you tend to not think all the information through. I must say I am also not using a HUD right now, I would say people with HUD use more information and time for the decision.

I quickly make a decision basically)

I often make decisions very fast, but sometimes i act like i am thinking what to do. Only when i see high raises or all in it takes me more time.

It all depends on who is in the pot with me and the stack I have really. Most times I can decide quickly

think about 3-5 sec before make decision

It all depends on the situation. But an average of 5-8 seconds.

I make my decisions very quickly, almost instantly unless of course the bubble is near and I need a couple of players to get knocked out before me.
I really hate it when people take forever in every single decision they make, it's really annoying.

Cash\Zoom - 4 seconds with intermittent (rare) tanking. Speed is good.
S&G - 4-10 seconds with intermittent (no so rare) tanking. Speed a bigger factor .. sometimes fast, sometimes slow.
MTT - Early (fast 1-2sec .. often pre-click the Fold option) Middle (4-10secs, tank if required) Late (quick as possible, I have no interest in slowing the game down)

Hello my decision time for hands at the start of the tournament varies if I'm going to make a bluff, or if I have a very strong hand and I want to get more chips to my opponents it's not very long the time I take more or less 7 to 15 seconds.

I only play online as there are no casinos in my immediate area. So for online play I'd say on average about 2 seconds. If I face a really tricky call decision though it can run up to whatever the timer limit is.

In most cases, is enough for me 2-3 seconds to make the decision. If a complex distribution, then 5-10 seconds.

Time cant be recovered

My fine poker playing colleagues online gaming is amusing at most of us are confident in our decisions to fold or call upon seeing our hands. I would make my play as best as I thought , some guys plat the time game to upset other players on the table which can make you restless, however just play to the best of your ability 3 or 4 or 5 seconds is more than enough time. it is not rocket science:icon_sant
