palm thrusts can be very effective when driving up on the bridge of the nose and can also be used when striking the jaw(as a hook) to create a brain stem knockout. however if u do not strike perfectly with the heal of the palm it ends up just like a slap.
these are good to use in street fights because it reduces the risk of breaking the hand on impact, which is very likely if you punch someone in the face. however in mma the gloves generally prevent this happening so punches are a better form of striking.
