Your strategy just need to be underlying mathematically correct.

In my game I don't sit there thinking of the math in my head, but the basic math to the game I believe is very important. Some amount of math on drawing outs along with pot odds can help everyone.

Geez, that was a pretty contorted sentance, huh? Sometimes my typing and thinking are at different speeds. LOL! But you get the idea.

Essentially this is why "ABC poker" would work. If you have enough of the common situations worked out, you can play them with mental efficiency. Leaving you some space to think about adjustments.
