Default Re: Brunson Question.

Thats why you want to understand the underlieing reasoning and math so you can find the situation in which it applies. Its not that at some limit its becomes reasonable to semibluff like this, its that against a certain type of player and with a certain image it shows a profit. Approximating understanding by memporizing a set of heuristics parametrized by the stakes of the game is a suboptimal way of approaching poker (not that heuristic based reasoning isn't how much of actual poker play works...).
