For me, logic doesn't apply.

If it did, then everyone would bet the favorite. We all know that isn't nearly the case.

I rely on intuition more.

Well , I can’t fully disagree

This is why I don’t believe write-ups are necessary when posting picks

Many poster prefer them to give some ‘logic’ for the pick

To me it’s a complete waste of time because for every reason given in the write-up as to why the side will win, I/anyone can counter and give those on why it won’t

99% of the time I’m crunching numbers/stats/trends and comparing the data to the available lines. If a big enough edge shows up, I’m betting it.

Very rarely use intuition.

Well, logic told the gambling world the Chiefs were going to win the Super Bowl.

Intuition told me they had no chance.

Don't underestimate Intuition. The gut is often right.
