Re: Are we calling down too much?
the best piece of advice i have been given so far is " dont bluff". Yes, bet out if u have 2 overcards, yes bet if you have Ace high, but have a flush draw, these are semi bluffs, but trying to knock 1, 2 or more ppl off their hand by betting with 72o is pointless. Another piece of advice i have been given is, " at micro limits, ppl bluff a lot less than you think". I think this is very true and something to keep in your mind. Yes, you may come across the odd player who likes to bluff on scare cards, or a maniac who will bet all the way with nothing, but in general if someone donks, or bets, they have the best hand ( or thinks they have the best hand, which i guess isnt quite the same thing). If someone check/calls the flop, and then raises the turn on a safe card, then quite often, he has a monster hand
