Bluffing in poker

[jordanian47]

Not sure where you got that article from but I found it hard to read. It's as though it's been auto translated from another language into english.

The bluff to me is another tool in your box in poker. Know how to use your tools well and don't over use them and they will benifit you for a long time.

Frequency of bluffing should always be such that it should be hard to predict. It has to do more with the psychology than what you hold. “Trust your instincts and make the right move.“

[quote=remowang;74377]Bluffing is a necessary part of the game when you are playing against people who pay attention to your betting patterns. I always bluff with best of precautions , because if it goes wrong it can be horrible.
Plus it is always good to know a “bluffing architecture and its perquisites like mentioned at the bottom part of the article at xxxxxxxx


Never heard of a term like “Bluffing architecture”. after reading the blog (so awkwardly written) I learned at least what a bluffing architecture is.

I never bluff as u will find when u play against me and lose because I only bet with big hands......(It says here)

Can't believe I just read that...don't I know you from somewhere??? Didn't you try and bluff me and lose?

The semi bluff is a powerful play as well. The advantage is if you get called you can still win.

I would say I see more semi bluffs by players than outright bluffs, however they might just be weak players with a wide range

Do I bluff, all the time, please call me

As said already, bluffing is part of poker. The only purpose is who and when to bluff.
I guess i'm not much known as a "bluffer", cause i usually don't have to show them due to my "reputation", i believe.
About bluff architecture i guess this is the real word for the"story" you wanna tell while bluffing. A good bluff is like a good story. The only difference is that the reader don't want to know the end.

How often do you bluff in poker? And suppose if you are aware of the face that your opponents are already bluffing, what would you do?

Hey Hello Everyone, Its been awhile sence I Blogged here. bluffing and making Ignorant Call is 2 differnt things. Lately my play hasnt been where I expect me to be playing. I see these Crazy calls, All In raises, and wonder, what are they thinking......... Wait till the right cards fall in my hand and decide to call my cards cause they are too dang good to keep folding. Call, most time lately they are jokesters, calling with nothing. Sometimes not even on a street let alone a hand. lol, I like to call the Bluffers when i know I have a Great Hand. I dont Bluff but occasionall to claim a pot. Good Luck to being a Great Bluffer, But I feel you will eventually equal out to nothing. Just an opion. Best of Luck to Everyone a hope to see U at the tables very soon. *MINI*

It depends upon what game I'm playing. If it's 10NL or under, I'm rarely bluffing. Playing ABC poker is more profitable.
Just wrote out a bunch of different scenarios where I believe it's good spots to attempt a bluff during tournament play but then thought about it for a bit..... "Hmmm..... I think me needs to delete this now. Don't want to reveal too much to my opponents." lol
