The Poker Basics Of Bluffing Like A Pro | SplitSuit Strategy

  • One of the most crucial poker basics a player can have is the ability to bluff. Bluffing allows you to pick up pots with weak cards, apply pressure to players who fold too much, and become tougher to read overall. Sure, any 'ol goofball can win a pot with a kamikaze bluff that happens to work ONCE...but we want a system for finding profitable bluffs in every session and against a wide array of player types.
    In order to find & run more bluffs, you need to first understand the basics of bluffing. So SplitSuit breaks down the 4 key principles of bluffing to help you spot opportunities and have the confidence that your play will net you money in the long run. And if used properly, you can use these same concepts to get rid of any bluffing tendencies that are actually costing you chips at the end of the day!
    Basically, with a little bit of math (including 3 numbers you can memorize today) and some off-table practice, you'll have a stronger foundation for finding +EV spots in real-time. And don't worry if things feel a bit overwhelming at first...that feeling subsides as your hand reading skills improve and your ability to eyeball the math at the table increases.

    Constructing a bluff is about understanding what hands your opponent has in their calling range, and what your hand looks like to them. The opposite is true when your line looks bluff, and your hand strength is disguised, such as turned set or a back door flush. That's also a green light to bet large and become more polarized and get hero called.

    You can do bluffs if you continue Cbet till you make it. Bluff only works on tight situation or the game is getting aggressive but in the end bluff in a wrong position most probably you will lose a lot and your game going tilt in a long run. The best bluff for me is understand how your opponents play he's card from 2pairs to set to open ended draw or flush draw and for top fair once you understand each player way of playing then you can make your own different types of bluff for different player play.the key here is patience and timing.

    This is Joe F from the RCP forums. The free content you're putting out lately is beyond valuable, Jimmy. Great, great stuff and more people are talking about RCP than were a year ago. Definitely moving in the right direction.
    As for a book on bluffing: Absolutely! Although I bluff more today that I did a few months ago, I still underbluff and it stems from a lack of confidence at times, especially an overly astute attention to results oriented thinking in a small sample size. A book from you, on this topic, would no doubt clear up my remaining confusions.

      If you bet x/y times the pot, you opponent needs to fold x/(x + y) of the time to break even. 1/2 pot size bet means they need to fold 1/(2 + 1) of the time or 1/3 or about 33% of the time. 2/3 pot size bet means they need to fold 2/(2 +3) or 2/5 or 40% of the time. Full pot size bet is the same as a 1/1 pot size bet so they need to fold 1/(1 +1) or 1/2 or 50% of the time. 3/4 pot size bet means they need to fold 3/(3+4) or 3/7 or about 43% of the time. Twice the size of the pot is the same as a 2/1 pot size bet so they need to fold 2/(2+1) or 2/3 or about 67% of the time.

    I’ve always thought that a half pot bet size does not correspond to 33% equity. Half pot raise is 3:1 pot odds which is 25% equity. Am I wrong here?
    Pot -100
    Bet-50 (half pot)
    Reward = 50(the raise) + 100(rest of the pot)
    Risk - 50( what you need to call to continue)

    Online, I win most of my hands just by bluffing. Once you understand your opponents limits, its essentially just a game of seeing how much you can get them to buy in before going in on a steep raise that they will fold on.
    An important rule that I keep close to heart is that you shouldn't be trying to win a ton of money, but rather just not lose a ton of money instead. If you come out ahead, then you did very well. If you lose 20% of your buy in, then you did okay. Just know when to walk.

  • @beanbot12

    I think what would be helpfull is including the pot size when discussing the basic breakeven -%.
    Reason being is that I can see people interpreting that as betting half pot corresponds to 33% equity instead of a pot size bet.

    I find a lot of players will call if they check and you bet,because that does look bluffy but if you bluff raise it looks very strong.Also the drier and less coordinated the board the easier to get folds as they think “What the hell is he bluffing with?”.
    Don’t triple barrel boards that go rag turn,rag river as they won’t fold the top flop pair or even 2nd pair. Better to bluff on turn hi,river hi run outs
    Also the general population under bluff raise so as a rule I fold top pair to these on turn and river unless I know the guy is capable of these plays.

      You need to estimate what range of hands he would have called/raised as he did pre-flop, and how well that range does against the flop. Someone who raised or 3-bet pre flop isn't likely to fold when the flop is AKQ. Someone who just coasted in on their BB probably will.

      1. If you expect folds at 65%, but 1/2 pot requires 33% and full pot requires 50% - both sizes are profitable but the 1/2 pot bet is better since the risk/reward gap is larger. Thought of course, in the real world there is usually a difference in fold-% given the bet size you choose...
      2. Most players are reactive (I bet, they called, now what?) and focusing on the points in the video will help you become more proactive (If I bet and get called, here's my future plan on most cards...)

      Kostas - as a math teacher, it seems to me that poker and basic math go hand in hand. Yet an intuitive feel about risk and reward can be just as good. Meaning, the bigger the bluff bet, the better your hand looks, up to a point, then it start to look fishy, at that point it depends on your opponent own sense of risk/reward, since calling a huge bluff bet is very profitable. So without math knowledge, a good bluff bet is the same a good value bet, depending on who are you up against, their holding , their perception of your play...Don’t you just love poker!

    I appreciate your presentation, but it often has an over-reliance on 'math' versus psychology. Bluffing is more often about the psychological impact of the Board (scare-cards), recently past hands (bad beats), and opponent stack size(low-ish, but not too low), the personality of your opponent (sticky?). This is where your focus should be. Success or failure on bluffs is 80% within your opponent's head.

    • @splitsuit
      @splitsuit 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      But all of those psychological factors you presented have mathematical backing. Too many people say things like "x is all about psychology and feel" as an excuse to avoid putting the work into the math - and that's just not a recipe for longterm success.

      @adamzerner5208 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      To elaborate on SplitSuit's point, "psychology" and "math" are totally intertwined.
      For example, suppose you know that your opponent is on a tight bankroll, just lost a big hand, and is afraid to lose more. That is a "psychological factor", but how exactly does that influence your decision making? It influences your decision making because it increases their folding frequency (FF%). That's how that psychological factor - "they're afraid to lose more" - equates to a mathematical factor (FF%).
      I want to argue that they are ultimately the same thing, but that's only true if your thought process "ends in math". If your thought process is "they're afraid to lose more, I'm just going to bluff", you aren't actually converting that psychological factor into a mathematical one, so I don't think that it is _quite_ the same thing.
      But you _should_ be converting it! Converting it just allows you to be more precise in your thinking. For example, say that you think your opponent is comfortable facing "normal" sized bets, but really uncomfortable facing overbets. So say you want to try a 2x pot overbet, because you think that psychologically, they're just afraid of it. Once you start getting in to the math, you'll realize that your 2x overbet needss to work 66% of the time to break even in a vacum, and perhaps a little bit more if you have reverse implied odds due to being pot committed or something. Let's say 70%. Next you look at your opponents range and see that in this particular spot, they will have top pair hands that they fold out, but they also happen to have 2p+ hands 40% of the time. So even though you're right that they are afraid of your 2x overbet and are folding their top pair hands, they happen to have enough nut-ish hands such that your bluff won't be profitable.

    Legitimately says anybody can wait around for a good hand no skill.
    Also the adjustment is not getting sticky lol it’s actually bluffing back at them on another hand
    So, turns out that’s actually how you win at poker?
    Plus a few blind steals from button and final table every game

      @@splitsuit Dont see it often brother. I do adjust by overbetting turns vs perceived draws. Was basically printing money in Durant OK by doing this (upwards of 1.5x pot) when I was there because they literally never fold fd's. Did it again last weekend in my local and posted an $800 hourly over 3 hrs.
      Maybe it works more in games like the Commerce or Bellagio 5-10 when we get a bit deeper, like 300BB+ /shrug

    Don’t do that shit at low stakes, at least where I play, I had people 3 bet with 97o, and called my 4X size 4 bet all in with aces lol, people who called all in with a gut shot on the turn. When I flop top set on 2 7 8 rainbow board and bet, had 2 people went all in with only god knows what they have. Bluff? Nope, not against low stake calling stations.

    I fold virtually every hand... unless I'm winning. Then it doesn't matter how hard you bluff... that's not even bluffing... that's merely pretending!
    I've never ever lost a hand I've folded... just saying.

      A 101 video isn't going to go deep in range construction. I'll give you a sweet tip to offset "wasting 13 minutes of your life" though...spend 5 seconds reading a title and if it includes a word like "basics" don't watch it if you want advanced content.

    • @mekanarazmedov1786

      @@splitsuit , your title also includes "like a pro" and pros have more or less sophisticated ranges. I hoped to get some idea when to bet/raise with gutshots and when not to. On what boards to bluff with high cards and what holdings make your hand better bluff candidate. These are not necessarily advanced concepts. On top of that you didn't even do good job of explaining basics. You could at least say that hands with worst showdown value make good bluffs. You could also say that hands that don't lose equity on multiple streets are good bluffs. Also you could say that backdoor draws are good bluffs. Or card removal effect. How about betting more aggressively when we have range advantage. These are very, very basics of bluffs and you didn't mention none of them. You talked about balance and said nothing on how to balance your range. And worst of all, your whole video is somewhat misleading and can lead your viewers to make bad plays. You talked about bet sizes and didn't explain when to use smaller bet size and when to go big. You used flopzilla to guesstimate folding% and didn't give villain raising range. Villain could raise some gutshots and bottom pairs as a bluff and suddenly your bluff is not profitable. According to your analysis on Kc9h7c2s board we should bet 100% of our range with pot size bet. Good way to burn your money. You also said there is no difference between Q high bluff and 5 high bluff when in fact a lot of time there is a big difference between them. Anyway, I just made a mistake watching your video and since I'm looking for advanced concepts I will just skip your videos. Hope your bluff book will have "Not advanced concepts" and will not include "pro" in the title.
