Umm... wow this ridiculous
TP my friend, you have GOT to get on the ball with my e-book editing and stuff.... why you ask? Because upon doing some more research on the "quality" of online poker books I came across this.... (this is an exert of a chapter from his book which he provided ) Im going to cut and paste... Im including his name and everything, simply because im reposting his work here here... Full credit goes to the author for this work.... Bolded comments inserted of my own...
Strategy 9 - The Art of Bluffing Today lets talk about the art of bluffing. Mind you bluffing is an art and if you can master it you will win more than you ever dreamed. Uh... I suppose Believe me when I say this, bluffing is truly an art. Think of a concert pianist with fingers that effortlessly dance across the keyboard making beautiful music- a great Hold 'Em player can bluff his way around the table just as easily. Again...I suppose It is harder to bluff on the Internet than it is in person. Because of the limited tells, more often than not, players will play their hand rather than the person they are playing. This is not to say that it is impossible to bluff an Internet Hold 'Em game, but be very selective when you do. Sounds decent If you are attempting to bluff with a losing hand, it is wise to do so pre flop and post flop only. Continuing a bluff on the turn or river is very dangerous. If you haven't bluffed them out by the turn card, chances are you're not going to. I didn't know you could attempt a bluff with a winning hand ... so are you basically saying never bluff, only make continuation bets or bluff preflop (wtf)? Bluffing must be in your bag of tricks if you want to become a great Hold 'Em player. There is no way around it. Just understand that you'll win some and you'll lose some. However, once you get your "bluffing" feel you'll win a lot more than you'll lose. Yea... after this detailed break-through you're right! Pre Flop Bluff Sitting at the big blind is a great time to conduct a pre flop bluff. There are no cards out and even if someone has a solid hand like KQs they can easily put you on KK or AA. It's a tough call for them. Most of the time they'll fold. Ummm.... WHAT This has to be a joke right? Beware; if you raise and you're called by more than one person chances are they got you beat. So get out as quickly as possible! When bluffing from the blind position you are really only concerned with "stealing the other blind" and nothing more. So raise from the BB on a bluff... then if you're called surrender the hand as quickly as possible bc you're beat...fantastic stuff Post Flop Bluff Now consider the post-flop bluff from a blind position assuming you have one or more callers. If an Ace shows on the flop, you have the option of raising the bet to see if they have it. If they don't chances are they'll fold because their K or Q will not hold up to your Aces. Their K or Q? WHAT? And what raise... you act first! Quick Tip Warning! Bad players can not be bluffed. They are "calling" machines. They wait for the flop, the turn and the river to "see what they get." This is why there is a Hold 'Em Conspiracy. The top pros want these players out. They get lucky now and again and really set the table reeling. Um.... SAY WHAT? The top pros want calling stations (or machines i guess) OUT...bc they make bad calls and can sometimes get lucky????? I'm sorry but.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA....ok. ********************************************** Until next time...all the best, Drew Laughlin Author and Professional Poker Player <----- If that's true, then I'm goin for it too and the crazy thing is it seems he has a decent amount of ppl on this stuff.... if this guy can write somethin like this and sell, I can only imagine what my stuff can do Ummm.... wow, that's all I can say
