How To Stop Second-Guessing Yourself At The Poker Table · S7E6

Have you ever called a big bet, lost the hand, and immediately thought, I knew I should’ve folded!? Or maybe you made a hero call, won, and convinced yourself it was pure genius? This poker mental trap—what we call the hindsight reflex—is one of the biggest leaks in poker. It skews your perception, making you judge decisions based on results rather than sound strategy.

In this episode of the Red Chip Poker Podcast, we break down why this happens, how it warps your thought process, and most importantly, how to fix it. Coach w34z3l dives deep into a hand where Hero faces a tough 5-bet all-in decision with Ace-King and explores how players misinterpret the quality of their play based on what their opponent turns over. Are you making logical, EV-positive decisions, or are you falling into results-oriented thinking?

What you'll learn in this episode:
✔️ Why results-oriented thinking leads to poor long-term play
✔️ How to separate strategic errors from mindset leaks
✔️ The key questions to ask yourself after every big decision
✔️ How to make better, more objective hand reviews

If you want to level up your poker strategy and stop second-guessing yourself based on the last hand you played, this episode is a must-study.
