Bluffs are only brags if you show him the bluff, say "ty for the monies fish" and instaleave.

Edit: Also acceptable: "I played you like a fiddle" or "IM GONNA TAKE ALL YOUR CHIPS YOUR NEVER GONNA WANNA PLAY POKER AGAIN".

Sometimes when you have a bad hand, the other guy has a worse hand. No, really.

Yeah I don't want to be a jerk but at $0.5/1, I doubt a better hand folded here.

Do you think he folded a queen? You played the hand alright, but you weren't bluffing.

I didn't know, but the 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] either gave him a
flush draw or gave him trip sixes.. Unless he came in
with A rag, which happened to be a 6, that card probably
didn't help him.. So why not.

Probably right. But do you think he would have folded if I had just bet right out, if not, he would have gotten to see the next card.

If he has a hand with outs against you he's calling the cr cause he has better odds than if you had straight bet out.
