How often do you bluff. Not talking about semi-bluffs. I'm more thinking of betting big when you have nothing. You have no kind of hand or the prospect of it getting a hand but you make a pot size bet as a bluff. How often do you make this kind of pure bluff play?

Not very often. Should amp up that part of my game more. I am sure it happens to me all the time.

You play tournaments with your head. You play cash tables with your balls. That being said I TAKE more pots than I win. 'nough said.

I'm not a big bluffer, but when you have position and it's a decent sized pot, and I'm pretty sure no one else hit, you have to make an attempt to get it. Pot sized bet will usually take it, though a call will usually mean they have a draw or maybe 2 overs and they don't believe you. That's the tough call, do you continue and really commit to it, or let it go. Usually depends on my stack size, the other players, and like I said, position. I like playing against big, obvious bluffers though, as I prefer to trap, which usually backfires online 😂.

Bluffing is good, there are times in which I have taken some big pots. But one thing to remember sooner or later you will lose.

Depends what type of game, i would say at least half the hands i win are when i am bluffing. normaly its just through a continuation bet. Although i normally consider bluffing if i at least have a low pair or high card
