Introduction
This article explains- The two types of bluffs
- Bluffs are only good when the opponents can fold
- The more opponents there are, the less the chance of bluffing with success
On television we often see how the best poker players attempt the most dangerous bluffs and get away with it. Many beginners want to imitate them so they make weird bluffs that lose them a lot in the long run. This article will explain both types of bluff and explain when it is profitable to make such plays.
We can distinguish between two types of bluff
- Semi-bluff
This is a bluff with a hand that is very likely to be behind, but that has the potential to improve, i.e a flush draw. You can win the pot either by forcing your opponents out, or by completing your hand. - Pure Bluff
This is a bluff with a hand that is probably a losing hand, with little or no potential of improving, so you could only win by forcing opponents out of the round.
