Re: Bluffing in SnGs
Bluffing is the art of Portraying yourself in the eyes of your opponent and determining the likelyhood if you(he) would fold to your bet( from his POV). Therefor, the more you can "see" through the eyes of your opponents, the more successful your bluffs will be.
If you are a good SnG player, it will be very difficult to understand how bad players play. In other words, it's hard to look through their eyes and determine how'd you play the hand facing the action you have given them. Thus bluffing bad players is -EV.
This leads me to the conclusion that bluffing in SnG's is +EV if you have a high succesrate with "looking through the eyes of your oppponents".
Buttt......... and there's always a but [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. If you heavy multitable, you wont have the necessary time to "look through your opponents eyes". Therefor if you multitable 8+ tables, bluffing will be very hard and prolly -EV or not worth the effort for the +EV.
Sorry for the rambling, but I guess this kinda concludes where you stand on Bluffing in SnGs.
