    Default The Ultimate Bluff

    Ok here is the hand, my read tells me this guy likes to hold on to midpair for as long as possible but constant betting will me a fold on the turn or river. I know many of you will say I went too far with this one but I trusted my reads on this guy. (Actually as I'm typing this he just folded yet another huge pot on the river.)

    Bet more on the river.
    To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

    What a tool! He read you for a flush....and still called???!
    Do you believe he had trip Ks?? I think he had K/x, not sold on his trip comment.

    if you were gonna bluff, you definitely should have bet more on the river.

    He has too big of a stack to lay down trip K's for 400 on the river . He had nothing. If he had the K his chat woulda been like "nice river blah blah blah i had a king" reading you for the ace.
