Re: [100nl] Deepstacked with underboat, stack off?
[edited so i can learn to read]

Re: the pure bluff thread
this is interesting. I find bluffing to be remarkably profitable - even at the micro level. It really is all about finding the right spots though. Bad bluffers bluff without a story or bluff when...
