When two thinking players play together for friendly stakes on a non-regular basis, who can make the most outragous bluff is a pretty big part of the meta-game.

My approach in these spots after being burned several times is to slow down a bit and find a place to get my money in good. Find good spots to go a bet deeper than I otherwise might. Also, bets and checks to induce bluffs work great as the other guy doesn't figure to be calling off his money second best.

Any line with the word "fold" in it sucks.
