Harrington´s Law
 

(first post on here)
Hi,
Those of you who read Harrington on Hold ´em vol. 1 are probably familiar with what Dan calls "Harrington´s Law": there´s always at least a 10% chance your opponent is bluffing.
Personally, playing low limit NL games online, I find this very true. However, when reading through people´s posts with hand equities, nobody ever seems to take this into consideration. Why is that?

because thats a ridiculous law if thats actually what he said.

Re: Harrington´s Law
 

not ridiculous at all. if you haven't read the book you should do so, and maybe you will think otherwise. it's very true and has proved to be pretty accurate for me. i always acount for a 10% bluff in my hand analysis.

It's actually qualified by "when he shoves a big bet in the pot".

It also depends on their style (lag, tag, etc).

I though the 10% number Harrington uses is a minimum for *any* style of player, even passives....

Re: Harrington´s Law
 

yep.. at least 10% of the time.
