  1. 2 things. First theres something about her that draws me to her but i have no idea what it is.😶 second she looks frighteningly like daisy Ridley

  2. This may work for her but it might not work for you. Honestly go with your gut feeling after analyzing the hand first of course.

  3. To win in poker, especially tournament poker, you need to know when your opponent says the following to themselves, "Oh no, I missed making my hand. The only way I'm winning this pot is to BET."

  4. Our stomach is our second brain. We have neurons in the stomach lining. Look it up. Learn to go by your gut instinct more often is my advice.

  5. This isn't true. Not to say it's not at all truthful, but figure that if you KNOW your hand can't be beaten (i.e. the nuts) then you take what you can get.

    Going with your gut doesn't take into account whether knowing your opponent is overbetting or overvaluing their hand. You also don't know for certain whether or not your hand will improve or not, to a point that will become winnable, if it isn't already.

    Other people will represent (Read: BLUFF ) having the strongest possible hand, leading you to ponder folding your middling (yet winning) hand. Your "gut" plays a bigger part in the game of Poker than you'd imagine. It's true what Liv says: Don't let it rule you. But when it comes to winning the most efficient players:

    Fold all hands that would have lost before paying anything for them
    Stay in every hand that they would have won and maximize the possibility of profit

    So it's the old maxim: Know when to hold 'em, and know when to fold 'em.

    Trying to force the folds of hands by appearing strong may work for some (bluffing), but its a losing strategy, dependent on you having better cards when you're being called.

  6. Bill is such a douche bag in my opinion. I heard him trash talk Alex Jones on national radio for no reason.
