Do you believe in your instinct when you play poker? :)

when you believe your instinct and beat your opponent's bluff, you get great pleasure. but too often it is not worth doing so, if your instinct is not highly developed. then cold calculation comes to the rescue.

Although everyone recommends that you do not let yourself be carried away by your instincts, sometimes I do, almost never the results are good, I must say

I don't but i often regret, sometimes i just have a feeling to go the flop (it's rare) with medium-low hands i'm not having guts to call it, and when the flops come makes me feel sick. I hope with time and more experience i will be able to get better.

I have little faith in instincts. My faith is based on mathematics and probability theory.

I think most folks believe that their instincts will get them to the top, or at least through the current hand. That's why there's so much loose money to be had.

I mainly rely on logic. For the formation of poker instincts takes time.

I prefer to rely on my analysis of the game and adapt to the game system of my opponents rather than follow my instinct.

Yes, but you do not have to rely too heavily on this, it can sometimes cost you a lot. But in certain situations, I played quite well on my instinct. It's best to rely on knowledge, because it's the biggest weapon in poker, and then everything goes away.:D

Sometimes listening to your instinct can cost you a lot of money, sometimes!

I don't know if the right word is instinct but some times if my opponent's line of play doesn't make any sense( represents a hand which is a 3bet pre/shove preflop) then I hero call or I shove in order to force him fold.This makes poker such a wonderful game!Logic.

Good poker players can easily analyze such scenarios in some seconds!

I trust my instict when to or not to trust the statistics of my opponents to be relevant for the current hand.

I try to play in a pre-defined way but sometimes I end up using instinct too (depends on some factors ofc) but it's complicated, the variables increase a lot.

The information is out there, it's how keen/clean your perception is!

Basically I play by instinct. The instinct is most likely based on the experience of past games, so it sometimes works accurately.

I do believe

I believe in my instinct it never fail to be honest on the poker table when something is bad or when I have to fold I know and Im gonna try to do what my instinct says cause when I do not pay attention on my instinct most of the time I discover my instinct was right so my piece of advice is listen to your instinct and do what it says. Study a lot and become a good player and then together with instinct you would probably be amazing poker players
