Do you remember a bluff that you were disappointed to lose?

There's nothing more exciting in poker than attempting a bluff at the perfect moment. You imagine your opponent's hand, review the hand's history, and bravely move all your chips into the middle. But then, your opponent calls. You reveal your bluff and... the table erupts. You've lost the pot, but deep down you know you made the right play; it's just that this time your opponent had a hand that was too strong to fold. Tell me about your experience! 😁

What is worst is reading the bluff calling and being hit with runner runner only to lose.

You fire a triple barrel (betting the flop, turn, and river), representing a very strong hand. Everything lines up… until your opponent calls with a marginal hand.
A borderline decision by your opponent that happened to work out.

In poker, decisions are evaluated—not results. If a play is profitable in the long run, then even if you lose that hand… it’s still the correct move.

I'm much more stressed out from a bad defeat! When I bluff, I know I played badly, and when I play badly, it doesn't matter if you play perfectly, if the card kills you.

In poker, bluffing is fun, you feel, you imagine the opponent's hand, you put most of your chips on the table, many times you win, and sometimes you don't, you reveal your bluff, but it's a good move, because of your value of betting hard.

That's right, we don't always need a card to win.

I remember in a deep stack tournament, in the pre-final, I was top 2 or top 3 stacked, and one stack from SB to BB went all-in. I had AK, and I called. My opponent had 8-6 different hands, and guess what? Of course, I lost with AK.

Remove emotions and win at poker. Eliminating emotions is about controlling them so they don’t control your decisions. So don't look back and bluffs that didn't work as in an emotional state, instead evaluate, analyze and push forward...
