Default Re: Do you ever bluff call on the flop heads-up with position?


Yes, often (I did vote).

Especially early in HU (assuming you can afford it!). I feel it is a relatively cheap way to put a finger on the type of player your facing. He min bets flop -- you call -- he checks/or min bets turn -- you raise...........

IMO this is an easy way to communicate that YOU will be taking control of the table. Assuming he showed weakness and gave it up on the turn/river, it's makes the transition to the aggressor much easier for me. Even if he didn't completely buckle - and perhaps more importantly, I think it tells him that you will not be passively folding to lead-out flop bets.
