Default Re: I finally (sort of) understand was Fimbulwinter was talking about.

Although I still think the turn bluff is an OK move at face value, these Isura comments leave me a bit baffled:

BTW, I was not counting on him thinking about my hand, only that he was ONLY thinking about his own hand

Why does it matter so much what I'm beating. Do you expect him to routinely call my raise and my river bluff?


He has to be thinking about your hand. He has to believe you have a flush for this bluff to work. And bluffing a river blank would make this a bad bluff and chip spewing. You gave it a shot, one barrel, if he calls you, give it up. I think this works more times than people in this thread are believing, but the second barrel shot would be suicidal at NL50.
