1) When "bluffing," it helps to actually have the best hand:

Flop: ($128) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)

2) Against aggressive players, it is sometimes necessary to call large all-in bets, even with marginal made hands like top set:

Flop: ($108) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)

3) When you've given up on a pot and decided not to bluff the river, it helps to have a hand that still has decent showdown value, like J-high:
