If i could have a hand when I had the donks down to 5 outs or less, I would have ended up quite a bit. Instead I was down about 10BB b/c of it.

How can you bet this clueless and still have money?

This guy was kind enough to redistribute my money to the other players after this hand. Ignore my tilty river bet:

Another rather silly and LC question:

Do you guys ever make pure bluffs in lhe? If so then when?


[/ QUOTE ]

2 situations aside from tilty. A) On a rag board vs. a blind C/R who likes to take shots at rag flops, B) on the turn vs. weak-tight multitablers. There's a few other times that you can get sexy, but generally not worth it.

yeah in blind battles on the turn against TAGs, especially multitablers like sethy said.

Also occasionaly bluff 3-bet a turn against bad-TAGs that like to FSD raise too much. But usually those are semi-bluffs where I have a draw as well.

[mattnxtc]

Anybody want to take a look at some hand histories for me? I went in and broke down 100 hands myself and made some comments on my own play that I have questions about. I took out most of the obvious folds and such to make it shorter and easier to look over.
