A few months ago, I came across a post that claimed that the world of risk, that is, stock markets and sports and non-sports betting platforms, is counter-intuitive. This means that you can’t rely on intuition there, but you have to rely on counter-intuition. I must admit, that was the first time I heard the term counter-intuition. This term was first used by Russian trader Alexander Silaev. However, I would like to talk about counter-intuition in relation to sports betting. Do you admit the existence of the term counter-intuition in relation to sports betting? If you ask me what it is, I will answer that it is a set of rules that limits decision-making based on the “unconscious principle”. But intuition is an unconscious principle, in which you cannot clearly tell yourself on what basis you made a bet.
Actually be depending on how you would be controlling yourself on such situation because if we do speak about on sports betting on which there are those times that our instincts do kick in or on the moment that our intuition will be going that on the moment that we do tend to choose. There are indeed those times that those inner voices would be kicking on which it would be totally opposite on what we had analyzed.
Counter-intuition? It would be that up to you whether you would be trying out to counter specially if you are a type of guy who do stick into your plan then you would definitely be considering this out.

Just like been said that there are times or moments that you do consider out those intuition calls specially at the time that you do made out some right decisions or good calls because you had some past results on which it turned out to be winning or positive and thats why you have made out some considerations on taking up on this one or you would automatically pass.
