good player has to know how to play with good hands and bad hands. So I think you need to bluff you to do well in tournaments

Motto: Beat your opponents, before their cards beat you.

You can't always rely on your cards, to compete. Oftentimes, you'll need to create illusions or mindbenders, to skew the advantage in your favour.

It's all about reading your opponents, on what they have, and how you can create the illusion of having a better hand - min raises, check/raises, 'moving in', overbetting. Personally, I feel overbetting (not all-in) and inquiring to the opponent how many chips they have left are usually very common mistakes on bluffing. I've heard many people inquire how many chips are left in the opponents stack, and 95% of the time they're looking to bluff them out.

I do bluff a little, but I try to play only premium hands, so when I feel I've gained a little respect around the table I can get away with a bluff here and there pretty easily. I just try not to over do it.

you know in regards to bluffs i have sat at tables where people will never call with anything less then a set if a straight or flush is possible. if you have position a bluff can make a lot of sense here.

I have also been at tables where your shove will get called down by third pair.

whilst I am sure there could be an optimal value bet/bluff ratio for GTO if you want to do well at the game you need to assess it to the situation.

how likely to call down are your opponents.
what is your table image if you even have one (some players are that absent)
how believable is this spot for you to have it?
how likely are your opponents to recognize that you should or should not have it in this sot.

i more decide to bluff on my feel of the table/opponent then a pre defined hand chart scenario.

Of course I bluff, but once in a while, mainly when the hand allows it in a justifiable way.
I don't bluff as crazy players that bluff 90% of their hands. :rolleyes:

A tourney player I feel like it's impossible to win a tourney without bluffing.Understanding your opponents situation plays a huge role in how to make the best decision in these situations.Bluffing in poker like everything else in poker have to do with time and brains.

I think that if you don't bluff, you're not a complete poker player beacause you become foreseeable and easy to defeat unless you have God on your side and you get the best cards every time :p
So yes I bluff

Всё зависит от карт и как его я играл до этого.. Вообще довольно часто и более чем в половине случаев блеф очень помогал)
