Following Intuitive Hunches When Casino Gambling

There are many gamblers who abide by strict playing strategies, and stick to the rules of the strategy no matter if they feel otherwise. There are gamblers who play in just the opposite manner and play their cards entirely by intuition and blind luck.  Most professional gamblers would agree that the former of these two betting methods is the more successful, although blind luck breaks the jackpot bank every now and then.

What about a playing strategy that incorporates both methods but still stays true to a game-specific strategy? Well, not going so far to say that gamblers should every so often make a playing decision they are not normally accustomed to making or act in a way that intentionally goes against a time-tested game strategy, players can still incorporate intuitive hunches, if you will, into their betting sessions.

There have been occasional times when I am playing a game and something in my head says to make a certain action, while at other times I do not hear that voice.  In no way am I claiming to be psychic (although there is growing scientific evidence pointing to the validity of psychic intuition), but for the majority of those occasions in which I hear that voice and do not follow it, the results show that I should have acted upon what that voice was telling me.

For instance, on more than any other occasion, I find myself sometimes wanting to take insurance when the dealer is showing an Ace at Blackjack.  According to the Basic Blackjack Strategy, one should never take Insurance; However, I sometimes feel that I should take insurance, but do not. More often than not, when I do hear this voice, the dealer is holding none other than a Blackjack, and I am exempt from the protection that Insurance would have given me.

So long as one does not objectively program that voice to go off every chance they have to take Insurance, I would say it is safe to occasionally take it if one has a gut feeling to do so.

On a similar front, there are many avid gamblers who say that sometimes they feel they should not gamble at time when they normally would be gambling.  More often than not, on these days when they were not as excited about putting down some real-money bets, their performance was anything but praiseworthy and would usually go home with a dent in their bankroll.  Whether this is a repeated coincidence, self-fulfilling prophecy or true premonition, it is obviously apparent that staying home on these days is the safe thing to do.
