- Even though live cash games are full of #poker players who rarely fold, there are still +EV bluffing opportunities. In this video, we break down the simple framework to bluff more using just a couple of basic numbers.
The discussion centers on understanding the math behind bluffs, specifically calculating the breakeven percentage (BE%) required for a bluff to be profitable, and assessing your opponent's folding tendencies. Through a $5/$10 hand example, you'll learn how to analyze a bluffing opportunity, emphasizing the importance of opponent range assessment and bet sizing for making bluffs successful.

Hi james..long time player here.. I love your videos but I'm just not that into deep math and especially speculation math.. lots of my opponents are different and I don't really know them so I can never tell what they will call with.. let alone assign some abstract value to assign to it.. I have no doubt your work is extremely helpful I just can't get myself to grind the math like that at my age lol
I guess I would ask "if you don't see this stuff as valuable enough to be working on, what is your strategy built upon?" You're 100% correct that villain's differ significantly, but at least doing some analysis on a 'right down the middle' type for villain gives you a great baseline for real-time deviation.
Yo! Just checked your channel yesterday as it seemed like it had been a while since I saw a video. Glad to see you back. 👍
tyty! New babies take a lot of time away from making YT videos lol
Thanks from AU Mr S.
The content I needed today.
Perfect timing then!
Good stuff James.. That's the type of content I come here for
Cheers Kim!
James - Good to see a post for you, and hope you were alright on the break. Love the topic, makes me think and is applicable to my other game (PLO - less the overbet) as well.
Cheers! And yup, the math works just the same for PLO 👍
Welcome back!
tyty!
The problem with applying this to the table when playing is we know that from player population data that was shown on a red chip poker podcast with coach w33zel over betting the pot as a bluff had less success than betting an amount under the pot, so this would mean that in theory some bluffs can be assumed to be plus EV but could actually be minus in reality. The assumption that betting a bigger amount will always yield more folds is not actually true when we analyze player population data.
The only issue is that it presumes that online and live population data are the exact same, which you can certainly argue they are not 👍
Good to have you back split
Thank you!
Can you do a video on straddling?
Does this one work? czcams.com/video/36gdtFDcw64/video.html

Seems risky
