This has been a great post. By following it's advice, I have been cutting down on my bluffing and calling resulting in me being much more profitable.

Also by getting out of hands early and folding to raises it is saving me lots of money.

One thing that I have noticed is that after you have established yourself as a tight player at a table, selective use of bluffs works fantasitic!

Over the last few sessions I have made some great bluffs like this and won some nice pots because they are all thinking I must be holding a monster to bet in. One thing that I think helps is that I don't make huge bets for bluffs, just enough so people think I am trying to get them to pay more into the pot. Often I think when someone makes a huge bet for a bluff you get callers because they think what the hell I many win alot if match it.

Also, to help this strategy along, I will often show a good hand that everyone folds on when I have it. Just confirms that I don't bluff!

But, the only thing that I find that messes with this plan is if you start to bluff too much, then you are just another player.
