Default Re: Game theory and bluffing question

This has been covered several times in the last few weeks on this forum, browse around for it.

The answer is not (in general 50%)

In general, you want the ratio between your bluffs and your legitimate bets to be about the same as the ratio between 1 bet and the pot size. This is so that your opponent can not profit - you are indifferent as to whether he folds or calls.

This is covered in "The Theory of Poker" by Sklanksy, and, I gather, The Mathematics of Poker.

Makes sense. That concept was covered in replies to another post of mine in similar context too, haha...I forgot. Arg, data overload these days.

Thanks for the reply.
