Do you think the delay of play strategy in online poker actually intimidates the response of other players, or like me you think it's just a waste of my and your time.

(Now mind you, as a goading tactic, to anger and encourage a response over time is the exception, in low volume table, you piss me off long enough by playing slow I do get anxious to try to knock you out with average cards, but I resist.)

Your Thoughts

Even with the world of experience, deliberate slow play can elicit an abnormal response.

Delay of play online is a waste of your time and mine.

1. It doesn't fool anyone.

2. It can just as easily, and most probably, be attributed to lag as to any other reason.

The only time it may be acceptable is when you are low in chips and approaching
the bubble.

bluffing is part of the game. Moreover, one of the most spectacular parts of it. This is especially true for audiences that have little understanding of game theory. Anyone who has never heard of waiting is unlikely to be impressed with how disciplined you played your last session. If the session is negative: there were no actions, you never hit the board, and you had pocket tens with better starting hands than you had, then, most likely, your unenlightened interlocutor will say that you simply cannot play. To some extent, he will be right. The red line will help you when the RNG does not help, because the main enemy of the poker player is himself.
It is important that bluffs are just a tool for making a profit. There is nothing special in them from the point of view of game theory, moreover, a good bluff never requires special willpower from the performer. Confidence comes from knowing that a given action is beneficial from a distance. Of course, adjustments should not be forgotten, however adjustments only mean that the action is beneficial at a distance against that particular opponent.

A correct bluff is always a plus, while a fish is such a pleasure to catch 3 pair ...

Just don't bluff when a low stack is already all in.

Sometimes it can be a "sweat" tactic, especially when sniffing out a bluff w/a 3 or 4 bet.

On my own behalf, I will say that in the game I am so calm that no intrigues of other players affect me. Which is what I wish for you.
