Breakeven Math Bluffing Question
200NL
Let's assume villain has been betting the whole way and on the river bets $20 into $83. I have position and effective stacks behind are $160. I think I might be able to bluff him so I look at 2 options. Bluff all-in betting $160 to win $103 Bluff $80 to win $103 What percentages of the time does he have to fold in each of my scenarios for this to be a profitable bluff? |

Re: Breakeven Math Bluffing Question
Suppose p = probability villain folds.
[ QUOTE ] Bluff all-in betting $160 to win $103 [/ QUOTE ] EV = p(103) - (1-p)(160) set EV = 0 and solve for p to get: p = 160/263 = 60.8% [ QUOTE ] Bluff $80 to win $103 [/ QUOTE ] Using the same logic as above we get: p = 80/183 = 43.7% |
