I admit I have no ‘pure bluff’ in my game.

I would like to hear from other players how bluff oriented they are and if this deficiency of mine is the weakness it is often portrayed to be?

Some points. Many times I’ve heard players say nothing excites them more than pulling off a pure bluff, but the concept does not excite me at all, even if I enjoy watching them play out. Recording and rewatching top flite MTTs, I’m aware some pros exhibit a great capacity for bluffing, while others do not.

After a few years of playing I believe progress comes when you accept your own playing style and play to your strengths. I can semi-bluff with some ease and also find no problem playing heads up with little more than I what I presume is the ‘high card’- again a form of semi bluffing if you will.

This noted, what I lack is any mode where, upon seeing a wet board, I feel inclined to tell a story, to represent the nuts. It simply never occurs to me!What makes this situation more amusing is I frequently see through someone trying to play such a bluff.

So while I envy those who can employ the pure bluff, are there other players like me who never feel compelled to attempt one themselves?
