First of all, you should understand that online bluffing is less effective than offline bluffing. Online you are a nameless, faceless icon at the table and you cannot use the same tells as at the real table. You can't make an impenetrable face or embarrass your opponent. Your opponent just sees your bet. You have to understand not only that online players are more loose and call with more hands, but also that you can not intimidate opponents, as you can do in a real casino. If you want to make someone nervous online, it won't work. Many players will call you down with the bottom pair and this will destroy all the value of your bluff.Before I bluff, I assess the situation. I have much less chance of success when there are more than two players in the hand. In this case, it is much more likely that at least one of the opponents will have a good hand with which he will stake the bet.

When I'm going to bluff, I do it in a heads-up or at most against two opponents.

Well, I particularly do not use this strategy very much, but it is always good to use and take advantage of the final position, especially against an opponent only.

Mostly on strong hands! Bluff not very passes! But enthusiasts lack! Fetish at all stages and they go and go! So I think how much to give him to play better! Only this idea doesn't work! Although smaller cards more than cards are considered a strong hand. Think about it!

If you dont bluff some youll never get to a final table. When blinds and antes get big you cant wait for a premium hand. 4 card straights or flushes on the turn are a semi bluff many players use. If you bluff try to have at least something not 72o. Heros will call with A high sometimes. So pick your hands. Pick your spot with the right opponent. And usually dont over bet. Easier to bluff if heads up instead of a multiway pot.

AND I'M TALKING ABOUT! Combine all! But the result is sad! And this poker baby sounds from the mouth of the winner!

I try to bluff as little as possible, but if you do not bluff it, it is advisable to have this ability, not that you have to use it all the time, but there is an hour that it is good to use that ability.

How often or if any do you bluff in online poker?

As well, when is the best time to try to bluff and profit?


If you know his range it is pretty easy to bluff. Also position is the key I think.
You just need to use your knowledge of the players. If you don't know what are you doing. FOLD ;).

Good luck on your games ;)

There are a lot of players on microlimits who want and conduct a bluff. usually at such limits it is not recommended. You will always try to open walk to showdown.

i prefer to bluff when there are up to 3 players at the table. trying to bluff no more than 5% of my hands, of course it depends on situation but my stack should be 30+ bb

Hi! I bluff when I let the stack and got acquainted with the game of my rivals at the table. But I think it is much more interesting to catch the opponent in bluff.

Bluff is part of the game. But you have to know who you can bluff against, who it's better not
to bluff against...In any case,you should understand that your bluff can be revealed,and treat it
philosophically... As fo me, I want to say that, of course, I'm bluffing, like many players...
with different results, like everyone too, I think...:jd4:

bluff

bluff is part of the game! also online - but you cant see body language but have to read from betting pattern only. as well you can read players if the are suitable for bluffing or will just call anything - which you can use when you get the monster hand to get paid!

Bluffing in poker is a part of this beautiful game. Can't say how often. It depends on situation on the table.

Similar to most of the posts so far, online bluffing is harder to read then in person. Most of the players you come across once never to be at the same table again. Some are at your table for a very short time therefore you can't get a read from their betting style. I would say I bluff more online then in person while playing stack and position. Determining the people that are behind you or in the pot with you can determine if it is the right or wrong time. Are you in a bubble position or not? Any thing come into consideration when decide whether or not the bluff is worth it.

It is necessary to monitor the structure of the board and the opponent’s bet. If any straight draw is not closed or a flush draw-bluff is likely to be profitable
