Are you a fast or slow thinker?

[odonob]

Fast normally, but everyone wants to think of themselves like that. Depends on your experience in any given situation. The more exposure you have to a scenario the quicker you eventually see a response. For example, if I see the flop now and other players hole cards I can now quickly identify what they need to hit, that took a long time to develop that skill.

Like lots os people here i'm fast, not very accurate though.

 

[rufininha14]

Slow, because I like to think a lot about the moves I'm going to make and see the best way to play

 

[amatola]

Slow thinker, but act fast. A terrible, terrible combination. Ends up with lots of why, WHY, did I do that??? Situations...😖

I generally prefer to take my time before making important decisions however poker doesn't always allow for it.

A lot of the more straightforward decisions should be streamlined once you've played poker for long enough, you should know which boards have a high c-bet frequency and which ones you should range check. Similar to once we get into push fold spots, those decisions shouldn't take too much processing power because we should have learnt them already and we're just recalling them from memory.

It just takes time, work on a new poker skill until it becomes second nature and you won't need to spend that much computing power to make a decision, saving your attention for more important and valuable spots.


Overall I would classify myself as a quick thinker, but part of that is being able to quickly recognize a decision will take more time. I think that's really important too.

[hilary antonik filho]

It depends a lot on the situation, I think very fast sometimes, sometimes I think fast at others I even think too slow

 

[GarotoMaroto]

I dont know, this is very strange question XD
I think carefully is probably the best way.
Hurry is enemy of perfection.
God bless

It depends on whether it's a simple or complicated spot, I still think I'm a fast thinker.

 

[antonis32123]

In important decisions I am slow thinker . In unimportant i amm a fast thinker , poker rooms don't give you much time to decide in crucial spots that's for sure

It’s important to recognize that both fast and slow thinking have their strengths and weaknesses. Some situations require quick, intuitive thinking, while others demand careful, deliberate analysis. Most people tend to exhibit a combination of both types depending on the context.

....depends on how awake I am at the time🤔👍

 

[akmost]

Pre flop and post flop I usually know what to do depending on the situation, I try not to take any super fast decisions because I usually I am wrong.
In some cases , like if my opponent jams river and I am the one who has to call it may take me the whole time bank to decide if his move makes sense or not.

I'm more of a quick thinker, I consider possible actions before it's my turn.
Most of the time I have a plan ready by the time it's my turn.

 

[successlaw]

If you will play more tables than usual , you become a fast thinker for sure
