i dont think i underestimate it, i think that i know its limitations.

grand masters in chess can feel the right move most of the time simply because they are so experienced and can just tell what works and what doesn't, but when something tricky comes up they must buckle down and make some serious calculations. i believe poker is the same way.

by the way, your example with the "will he fold TT, nope" is not an example of subconscious, because you are aware of the thought process. if it was actually subconscious you should be aware of the right answer but not the thought process.
