Default Re: math quiz

Yes, we do use the basic outline of it, and I do think about their hand range and I do use the simple calculations which you think about. But at the same time we usually have guidelines based on math that allow us to take shortcuts.

If we're getting 2 to 1 on a push with a hand like 66, we automatically assume we're getting close to the correct odds. Maybe in my post it comes off as if I'm saying we never use math, but all I'm saying is that we almost never think about it indepth at the table. Even our discussion of it here is tainted because we don't have the adrenaline rush that we have at the table.
