With perfect math there is no emotions :D
But seriously, I think math is more important than emotional control. If you followed the math correctly then you should not be emotional about the result.

Emotional control > math.

in my opinion its like in life where the most intelligent people dont have enough confidence and will to succeed because they lack emotional intelligence.

I believe that there should be emotional control and good management of mathematics.

Combining both very well would be the best, being balanced and you won't fall, unless they do it for you hehehehe

I would say that to be a proftable player at poker you need both. Its a must, and thats why its difficult too be a Pro. If you dont control your emotions, you can't use the "perfect math", because you would be blind by your emotions... On the other hand, if you have your emotions in check, but dont understand the technician stuff, the rules, the odds, +EV etc, you wont have meaningful results on the long run

these two things should be together separately you're going to play bad poker so I think you don't need to choose between them these 2 aspects should be

if I could manage emotions, I would achieve more in poker, when choosing emotions or mathematics, by my example, of course, I will choose the first

Any self-control in the game is a plus, knowing and controlling emotions are part of it. Sometimes a decision taken too quickly turns out to be wrong and vice versa, no one has a golden mean that guarantees winning, but self-control is welcome in a package with knowledge.

Hi.
In my opinion, the most important thing in poker is the patience of the player. Only a patient player will be able to control his emotions and make correct and effective decisions.
Good luck.

I think both things are extremely important, but if you're mentally tired then something could fail.

I believe that it is more important to be able to manage and govern emotions, you can do well with mathematics but if your emotions betray you it will be difficult for you to achieve the objective although both are essential pillars on this path this game

Both are important, It is useless to have emotional control, if you do not use mathematics correctly

The emotional one, because if you're not well mentally you won't be able to do the right things.

If you are guided only by mathematics, then of course the chances of winning are much higher. But in that case it won't be much fun. After all, emotions are the basis of pleasure.

Both are very important in this game, sometimes the math shows you what decision to make, other times your intuition tells you what to do and then you make a decision, whatever it is you need to be lucky for the right decision

Both emotional intelligence and mathematics need the brain, so the head must be taken care of first.

In my opinion, controlling emotions is more important. Even if you are a professor of mathematics, but you have a problem with emotions, then it is unlikely that you will be able to make the right decisions, your emotions will prevent it.
