well
I guess big is different for different rolls. My roll is only ~390 and my bluff a pot size bet on turn to the chip leader at the $200 NL table. He had 600+ and i bet like ~80 into a ~80 pot. He went into the tank and i was saying to myself "God Damnit Brian, why did i do that" ((no offense)1st time i said anything ab you) I just knew he was going to call. Then he mucked bc he and i were playing earlier and i was playing supertight and he though i had for sure flopped or turned a set. LMAO i had 10-3 and was shaking like a nerd in gym class.

I tend to jump out of my seat, standing several feet from the computer, and then start chanting the mantra - please fold, please fold, etc.
Typically, my biggest bluffs are in large multi-table tournaments, near the end of tournaments, so there is a lot at stake. It's very pressing on my nerves, but there is nothing like that rush of making the successful bluff. The Greedy Gecko

I am really working on my Jedi mind control skills lately....You WILL fold, a quick hand swipe across the screen, they fold, and then they type into chat "I WILL fold". Its kind of freaky really.

Sounds to me like you are playing above your bankroll. I've learned my lesson in giving out this advice (or have I?), but if you are bluffing 20% of your bankroll in a single bet, or sitting with half your roll at a given table... I think that might be too risky. IMO.

yes
i realized that and have since moved down to the 25nl tables per someones advice. I knew it was above my bankroll just didnt know how much over it was. Now im 3 tabling 25$ tables. Just dont seem like the players are any better/worse at any of the limits i have played. I do understand that this risk of losing my whole roll was at stake. well 75%. But i was so excited to have won so quickly that i let it go to my head a little.

For me, it's not so much the big bluffs that get me out of my chair. It's when I get all in with Aces preflop in a tourney (or a monster on the flop) and get called by a much weaker hand. That's what sends me to my feet... knowing I'm a HUGE favorite and thinking "No Jack! No Jack! No Jack!" (or whatever the case may be). Sometimes I actually double up, but if I had a nickel for every 2 outer that took me out of a big tournament.... ggrrrrrr.....
Maybe I should try some Jedi mind stuff on the computer dealer: *Wave Hand Across screen* "You will put a blank on the river." "I will put a blank on the river." |
