Reply To: How does Halachah work?

there is no question, as i mentioned when i started the thread, that one should ask a rav (LOR) when confronted with a shaila. My question was actually twofold:

1)when you have a situation where you have 3 poskim to choose from- can I choose the rav that will give me the psak I want to get i.e. maykal ?

2)if I cannot get a rav now (Im on vacation, or it’s midnight, or the rav doesn’t answer his phone etc) can i rely on a heter in a situation where i know it is a machlokes?
