crystalallen,

It looks to me as though it is not as much you simply getting bluffed more, its that you haven't yet thoroughly taken in "2+2 poker" (for lack of a better term), and therefore arent able to identify your own leaks or the ease of calling in a lot of spots where people seem to be making a move on you.

Trust me, its a lot of fun when you finally develop the understanding for that stuff, because then you don't just catch bluffs, you snap them off and beat him into the pot [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I recommend continuing to study and post and plug leaks and work on hand reading skills. I have a feeling you'll be catching more bluffs soon. Best of luck.

All I'll add is that I've found that the weaker the player the more likely he/she suspects a bluff. Don't worry about it too much and move on to the next hand.

Thank you. I don't what's worse, when they show, or when I have the feeling it happened and I sit there brooding about it.

You get to a point in STTs where (because everyone is generally horrible) you play your strong hands strong with bets to get all in and you fold when you miss or the board crushes your hand. If your opponent is betting with or without a hand when you have nothing or a weak holding (compared to the board) it doesn't make a difference.
