Message: [QUOTE="DoIHaveAFlush, post: 5599132, member: 423978"] Hi Tamara822, As described by other members, I do believe that your gut feeling should not be completely ignored - however, in the particular case you just mentioned (going all-in with bad cards) this is a bold move that could obviously lead to you being out of the game instantenously. To be more precise: what do you by "bad cards"? 52 offsuit? With this cards, even if my belly was literally talking to me, I wouldn't listen to him. Why should I? With 52o there's almost no way you can win on an all-in, except you being incredibly lucky, having either set, straight or fullhouse. Since this doesn't happen too often, I would only listen to this gut feeling if your hands at least have a certain edge over potential hands of an opponent. You need to consider, for an opponent to call your all-in, he will probably have you dominated reaching a single overpair. [/QUOTE]
