You may know from my previous articles that I am not a proponent of bluffing in online poker games, especially in the lower limits. Most new players approach online poker like they are Gus Hansen and plan to bluff their opponents off the face of the map. Uhh… no. Really. However, I have never stated that bluffing is wrong, only that it requires a high level of skill, timing, and exceptional opponent profiling.
There is a vast difference in the styles of games played from limit to hi limit to turbo sit and go strategy styles, that should make you think twice about bluffing because if done with out due thought process you are likely to get caught and as we all know one single pot can make a huge difference in the outcome of the whole tournament.
