Message: [QUOTE="guccipix, post: 4371827, member: 313985"] Making the right logical and justifiable decision is always better. As a poker player, something you must be okay with is the element of chance, but you cannot be afraid of this. For example, I had TT today and the board came 963 with two hearts. When my opponent shoved over my bet, I was pretty certain he had a flush draw and little else. But knowing this (even if I am wrong) I can't lay it down. Let's say he has A8 of hearts, then the only cards that will beat me are aces and hearts, which at the most there are a total of 12 total left in the deck, so the odds are in my favor. I made the call, he had A2 of hearts and the river was the king of hearts. Was I upset? Of course, but I will be winning there more often than I am losing, and that is more important. [/QUOTE]
