Default Re: (probably bad?) bluff

I just try to take some non standard lines more frequently lately.

luegofuegos well kinda inspired me to start experimenting w/ finding more spots to steal pots rather than just playing ABC grind poker. sometimes they work out well and I feel like a genius for stealing a 40-50bb pot, sometimes you get burned for a stack. you learn from your mistakes, realize where you went wrong and go back to looking for more spots. most importantly you realize how much people react and adjust to you especially after you do something really crazy and it bombs out. so instead of getting that "omfg that was dumb, wtf am I doin?" feeling, I'm more like "okay, now how can I use image I just created to get paid off and win those chips back"

most people blow up and shut down right after they get caught running a big bluff, but its really the most profitable time to be at the table.
