I know it is more of a limit play but wondering if it would also work in nl?

For those that don't know the clarkmeister is when you bluff at a 4 flush board.

Of course there's spots where this is good in NL. It obviously comes down to the situation like everything in poker does.

Esitmate your opponents calling range on a 4 flush board, work out how often he needs to fold vs your bet to make your bluff profitable then see if he folds this % of his range or more based on your estimate. Boom you have worked out whether your bluff is profitable.

Whether something's good or not in NL comes down to your opponent, his range, how he plays it, and the resulting EV of the play. Whether or not some guy has wirtten a theorem about some generalised vague spot is irrelevant. There are good spots to be found for almost anything in NLH.

Well i don't play limit but but according to the Theorem you can do it 100 percent of the time in limit and show a profit. Would you say the same is true in nl ?

I don't think it's even true in limit, against good opponents.

I'm wondering if maybe posting hands instead of asking stupid questions would be of higher importance to someone when it comes to moving up the ranks of the micro's.
"Once we reach a certain level of mastery, we see there are higher levels and challenges. If we are disciplined and patient, we proceed. At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
