Excuse me I hav a Problem with...

[James81]

...Bluffing!!!

Ok I explain. When I am in a Hand, and no one bets. I do it for them. I do it all the time. And when I smell some weakness in their betting I raise or check/raise, fire second, third barels to them. But that kind of play is so bad for my bankroll I busted it three times that way...

I cant help me! Before a session beginns I sit down and say Bluff only when I fell there is weakness in opponents play, but after few orbits I see me fireing at every pot who is uncontested even down to the river... sometimes I dominate the table, sometimes the players adjust to my game and call me down and even then I dont get it in my mind that this aggressive play mess my bankroll...

Has anyone some hints for me to get this problem under control ?

Constantly firing 3-barrel bluffs will get noticed quickly by anyone, obviously you need to tone it down a little. It sounds like you play lower limits, and bluffing can be pretty ineffective at those.

When playing badly you will tend to lose more against better players.

Yes its on the lower limits (10NL on FT)

But it is really difficult to slow down... and I agree with the opinion from gpw you lose more to better players because they can make better adjustments to your play...

I think what he means is, play against better players because they're more willing to lay down their hands to bets. weaker players at lower limit games will call you down to china town no matter what.

but honestly, i multi table on FT and don't find a need to bluff. Like mdvgaag said, I'll c-bet the flop when i feel its right, but usually firing 3rd shots will get you in trouble.

Ok your posts helped me a lot once again. Thank you for that to all of you...

I wouldn't say that I am a handreading phenomenon, but I am right most of the time. And I like it to raise for folding [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] every time when I smell a move or some weakness.

But the answere from FUTUREDOC85 "Probably the biggest mistake inexperienced (at least inexp. at relentless aggression) players make is that they want to bluff at every pot with nothing" I recognized that in my game some days before he wrote that!

Now I playing a little bit more what the players at the table let me do. I mean when the opponents or especially one or two opponents play weak tight I loose up against them and raise and reraise no matter what. I pick of some players on which my moves will better work.

At this time I dont make such big loses, but at all not big winnings too. I try to build up my bankroll more calmly. Maybe you joking about me, but I play only one table 10NL 6Max and I love it. Multitabeling is not what I like to play. You really learn more with one tableing and get the most of it when you "know" your opponents. I cant master that knowledge when I am multitableing.
