Default Re: How Experts make Decisions under Uncertainty

What the study is saying, is that athletes as well as others who have to make quick decisions process in a bayesian manner once enough experience is attained, without the knowledge of mathematics.In other words your brain functions this way once you have enough experience.

The top players or poker experts are able to process new incoming info and adapt, where most of us even with much experience suffer from "CONFIRMATION BIAS", which leads us in the poker world to, for example..overplay aa.kk in the face of strong information that our hand is not good. You can think up many more scenarios where we fail to process new information that a hand should go a certain general way.
Being aware of confirmation bias can help you to be ready for uncertain situations that come up in hands, especially
when you have taken the lead early but get significant resisitance etc.

good luck
