syphilaids;233763 wroteyeah don't bluff this man, the tourny is so early and a lot of players at these micro stakes go to the mode of "meh, its only 2-3 bucks, if I lose i can easily join another tourny, or I can double up right now! hell I got a pair!"
I don't mind this move when you have notes on the player, the blinds are a little higher, and he has a middling stack. But here you're tryign to get creative against an opponent for all your chips when you have no read, and he could be holding ATC. Not saying I've never done it, but it has definetely cost me more then what it has won.
yup and i know this for sure, and looking back its a lame post that way cause its not like he tanked and then called, or didn't believe me (maybe), but just too donked to lay down.
its a learning thing though i need need to keep practicing this aspect, and its gonna cost some penny, but it comes from that e book philly posted about exploiting the regulars sometimes by shoving or bluffing hands they likely can't call. here i made the correct read on the incorrect player.
but the interesting thing is we get to post hands and see what the best thing to do is, but if we post our own bluffs backwards, we get to see which types of players would fold and who dodn't.
