I found that when I started to trust my intuition and started to fine tune it I started to do better in poker. It’s not something I did over night though. It was after 4 years of full time playing.
Hi Patrick, I enjoyed the upload. Right at the 13 minute mark you said something like, "you can give yourself permission to go with your gut and make these sort of calls *when you have a compelling and logical reason to do so.*" I thought the whole idea of "going with your gut" is that you don't have a compelling or logical reason. Could you elaborate on what you meant by that? Thank you.
At risk of going down a semantic rabbit hole, I would say his "gut" is telling him Nick doesn't rep anything here, and his logical reasoning to back it up is the hand reading process that he went into where he eliminated most of the potential value candidates from Nick's range. I think if you have a strong gut feeling you should be able to back it up with some reasoning, even if you can't explain it entirely. If you are acting on a feeling and you cannot logically explain it at all, it's more likely you are just tilting IMO.
I think this is more of the case that your gut is fine-tuned to gto rules and how to exploit them, and vice versa, through the process of continuous study and practice on the felt.

Would you think he made a good call if Nick went all in? You can assume on that hypothetically scenario that his body language and stuff were the same.
He could be good if he wanted. He is not there yet. Watch the whole stream I think he lost a couple buyins. He probably got paid as much just to appear so no loss.
