I have no idea if this concept has been written about in countless books either... but no harm in explaining my thoughts.
This is something that happens to me very often and I don't doubt it also happens to many of you...
OK your turn arrives and two Players are betting up behind you, you think.. “I have 7 3 off suited, they are about to go at it so I'm going to fold my big blind and count my self lucky I didn't lose more chips”?
So then on the turn 7 A 3 Has been laid.. right?
Now you think “Oh sh*T*#*#!#!!” .“Why did I do that? Just my luck”
“Oh Well never mind!” right? Come on you know what I'm talking about lol don't you?
Not only does that happen but on top just to add insult to injury
The river shows another 7
Not only does this happen to us all but we should learn our lesson by it or do we and not know it?
A few hands later we press call on some thing like the 7 3 off suit and you wouldn't normally....
So what have we learn't so far? have we learn't by our mistake? If we look at how this mistake is constructed and why it occurred then we have.
OK so this is the Concept forgive me if its well known and I've only just discovered myself...
As our brains are stimulated by the action of a "rewards based system" we are unwittingly and subconsciously programmed to see the pattern of “77733” hand folded as a loss of reward encounter.
As we endeavor to create more "rewarding gain" as opposed to "reward loss" our unconsciousness is compelled to throw in a gut feeling and instinctive action by pressing call button, given that a recurrence of a reward loss encounter similar to last encounter is less desirable.
The pattern building is an automatic subconscious process and while staring at a screen with vivid colored decks , large stacks and the feeling of loss and reward , we tend to allow our Gut feeling to aid our decision...
Based on this natural process we see the Casino industry strive to pull in the rakes with flashing lights and golden tickets all seeking to stimulate the reward centers of the brain....
Better question would be......If casinos and poker platforms chose to utilize “Reward Loss pattern recurrence associated with folded hands” system and “subliminal coaching” would we ever know it? lol
Stop when the fun stops or when you are compelled to
