its very hard to spot online bluff-you have to have some info on player bluffing-like some detailed notes or youve been playing against them for a long while-live its much easier to spot a bluff-there are some tells a bluffing player will give if your able to spot them if could pay dividends later on-when trying to spot a bluff i look to see if the story there selling matches the way there playing

You always raise 2/3 or 1/3 of the stack... if he calls, he has something

I like to bluff just after the button if no one else has bet to try and steal the button back again! :)

The bluff should be part of your game. To be good bluffer you have to practice a lot and have a lot of game experience. I think the good bluff should be made at the right time, position and with the right stack.

Analyze the story

In order to spot a bluff and/or bluff yourself you will have to pay attention to the story.

A lot of times when someone is bluffing their story doesn't make sense... they try to tell a story pre-flop that they have big cards with a big raise then the straight gets there and they change their betting style to represent the straight.

The same is true for you. Always look at the cards that are out there and think about what it means if you are putting chips into the pot. Then you have to continue to tell that story throughout the hand.

Check on the flop but raise on the turn or river.Position wise should be on the button when everyone else folded to you.

To make the right bluff you must know a lot and have a great experience. It's not as easy as it seems. Identify bluff same. Sometimes it can be seen immediately. I try not to bluff.

Online bluffs are hard to catch but weak players usually make strange bet sizes which sometimes indicate a bluff.

Always act last at the table allows you to bluff as long as you do not help a shark in the hand you are playing or a very aggressive villain

the texture of the board and the size of your opponent bets! That's what gives the enemy map and his style!

there is no position to bluff, there is only a board to bluff.
Watch your opponents, check who stays unreasonable in and who can lay it down. And then w8 for the right spot.

Late position is good and you should know how opponents will play. When you know your opponents then sometimes you dont have to look at your hole cards at all to win the pot ;)

In order to learn to recognize the bluff, watch the behavior of the player and when something changes – then you need to be wary. Bluff makes sense against the "newcomers" or "indecisive semi professionals". Against "maniacs" are more suitable trap than to bluff.

The most mysterious part of poker is bluff, it is like we play the game police and thief :)
First you must to know to read your opponent and his behavior before taking any action about bluffing and most important always depends in which position player is.

You can bluff anywere at any position. But what is likely the most pass trow is when the board is eavy and your image is a tight player. If your image is a loose player you will be call the most of the time at every level of the bet. When you are a tight player and you hit hard and you show your hand when you hit big, its more easy to bluff 2-3 off in a board of Q-Q- 10 .

I very rarely bluffing and therefore do not know much about the bluff. But bluffing important to choose the right moment. You must know how to play rivals. Just like going on a bluff risky.

*No bluff - no poker!

*At the beginning of the distribution is impossible to know who is who. And the bluff often brings results.
