Trying to out bluff each other with nothing
Usually when I decide to bluff I have thought about it for a while and set up the bluff, but then again I always have something to work with so that I hope to get lucky on the flop, turn or river. Semi-bluffing is always the best way to go in the art of bluffing, because if they figure that you like to bluff with air, then it makes it more difficult to pull off a bluff.
Anyway I am losing myself here in how to bluff at poker, which is not really where I wanted to go. Most of the time when you make a good poker bluff, the other poker players back off because of your aggressive betting. But once in a while, two of you try to bluff at once and this is what happened to me earlier this week playing online poker.
Both of us went head to head, trying to out bluff each other with nothing but air… until one pulled out. I felt committed, was deeper stacked and am feeling very invincible after my break so I just kept bullying him until he backed down. Got off lucky because a better player may have called me. He let on what he had, I think because he wanted me know that he was bluffing and it was nothing, wanted me to know that he was capable of bluffing, not sure why…
I ended up with a queen high, thats all and took down a tidy pot… lucky to get away with it this time.
