poker is pure heart adrenaline to win your heart suffers every hand playing with joy is the best because the variance can always hurt you or make you happy playing cold is the best and be happy what has to happen if you win is better luck at the tables

I go mostly by head and numbers. Seems like whenever I go by my heart I usually lose my pants. :eek:

Brain

In my opinion, if people say they made a choice by heart, I think they either read the opponent well (brain), or just got lucky. Compare how many times you make a profitable decision using your brain and how many times with your heart, then decides which one is better. Of course sometimes you might get super excited, by making a hero call based only on your guts, but try to see poker in the long run adn wheter it was a profitable call in that spot or not.

Mostly brain, but sometimes you have the intuition that something must be wrong, so try to listen to that side too.

Hm, i am more often disappointed when i make a mistake due to my heart than my brain. Cause heart is not a logical process. But sometimes it provides some helpful lightnings, the hard thing is to see when ...

My brain controls my heart, so I follow my bra..., no, I follow my hea..., no, I follow both in a stable union. :icon_sant

the brain helps to win at poker more often than the heart

A game of skill requires brain power, not luck or heart.

God bless those of you who can go follow your hearts at the table. :) When I've tried that it usually ends this way...

I try to be patient and avoid mistakes. And all this is due to the processes that take place in my brain. My heart totally belongs to my girlfriend.

I try to follow my brain but my heart keeps telling me to believe in the cards! Which I know it's not a real thing but gets me all the time!

It is very difficult not to play with feeling, you always play with love to some cards you have and you can win or lose a lot

You have to follow the brain. If you have a "gut read" on something, you're going to be wrong about half the time and forget about it later. When you use your brain, you have the odds in front of you!

there are times when the cards are not so good, I feel an intuition to play them, but I look at them, look at their position and give up on them.
normally and a winning hand.
I have to improve this.
believe more in my intuition.

As mentioned above intuition, I like too call the style instinctive. A reference style of my person.

I think everything should be in moderation. Both intuition and logical thinking should be present in your game. Without this balance, I don't think you can play at a good level.
