It has many crazy people in this game that bluff without any coherence. I've watched people paying bet with 7:02 being the flop tava Q A. They go to the end insisting. I know it, there are people who play a joke. But the worst thing that these people sometimes dao all in with these letters and you have a great pair and still loses the pot. hahahaha

bluffing is actually art. I do that more often recently when I have bad beats and bad beats jump come and punch to my face. I realize that recent habit too but cant help to reduce it yet. I'm kinda like "betting when possible". End up getting quite a lot of pots of facing the really nuts :p

The simple answer is that it depends. If your opponents fold marginal holdings too often then obviously there's an edge in bluffing more. If they're aggressive and loose then there's no reason to bluff because you're going to get paid more and lose less when you just wait for very strong holdings.

Bluffing is ok, but most of the people dont know how to bluff. They make other players angry and die trying to make money. I dont really like bluffers...

Bluffing is an essential part of poker. Yes, it is a must. But situationally a must, not just rampage of spewing chips in the middle.

My best bluff ever was being all in on a 2/4 game 150+ BB's deep, in an $1,100 pot. Bluffing takings courage, confidence, and more importantly, intellect, because in order to perform a massive bluff you must know your opponent pretty well.

Good luck!

Bluff and Poker they both walk together. Since you start understanding your opponents, making the correct read about them and finding out their leaks, bluff becomes as an option to explore a big number of situations.

In my opinion, it´s almost impossible to play poker in a good way, becoming profitable and don´t bluff.

I often use a bluff . This often brings me victory , but sometimes I lose all my money :( I can not stop in time

You cant bluff all the time. And if you want to bluff, you must have cards for a small chance to win. You cant bluff if you have 34 or 72. By my opinion, bluffers lose everything sooner or later. Like you said, cant stop in time

Of course bluff is must, BUT if you play 60% of the hands don't expect you get away easy with bluff.

On tournaments, you must bluff if you want to get the last table, but on cash games it`s an option. You choose how you will play.

I very rarely bluff with nothing (it's always nice to have at least some equity with some sort of draw), but much easier to successfully bluff when you have position.

If villain c-bets the flop and then checks the turn, unless they are trapping a monster there is a decent chance of taking the pot then with a reasonable size bet with ATC if the action is now HU.
Of course this play is only working if you have position, as otherwise you would be donking without knowing where you are at or allowing a check check, when again you won't have any indication whether the river hits them at all.

As they say, without bluffing poker is not possible.
Bluffing in cash games considered as an option. First of all create a reputation tight player. I make opponents believe that I have always only play strong cards, and if I go to the game, it is only when I am fully confident in their abilities. And then over time, opponents once again not to play with weak cards. And then, from time to time I apply a bluff.

Totally agree with that. But need to bluff carefully, so that your opponents do not have the suspicion, never came to showdown ;).

Without the bluff poker impossible. If you only play strong cards, a lot of money will never win.

The bluff has a clear and direct connotation. You have a bad hand, but you bet anyway, pretending to have a strong hand. If your opponent believes you, you take the pot.
When you have a medium stack of chips, it becomes more appropriate to bluff, since it makes it difficult to read the opponent to your chips / pot ratio.
The less the better. One is better than two and two is better than three. When you bluff more than one player, you create the image of a strong hand, but you increase the chance that someone has a hand strong enough to pay you or raise your bet.
