Identifying spots to bluff in cash games

[roebuck212]

Ok one thing that costs me sometimes in cash games is bluffing at the wrong time. For instance i play a lot of 6 handed .05/.10 nlhe and the button is a hot position to raise w/ any 2 cards. How can i decipher when he has something vs when he doesnt.

To answer your question in English: At those microstakes, you shouldn't bluff at all; people tend to call you down with bottom pair.

I think that one thing to consider in this situation is often the raises is raising.. are they loose/aggressive? You may be able to push them off there marginal hand preflop.. you want to observe the players actions or use a tracker of sorts.

I agree with rivdee. Unless you are playing against someone who is actually capable of folding some garbage bottom pair hand, bluffing is useless.

If you successfully trap by check raising one time and show down a big hand the check raise bluff works very good after that.

When playing 5/10c you really shouldn't bluff at all. It's a good game to be aggressive preflop 6 handed then maybe a c bet. Just wait for your spots and you should be able to destroy that game.

Know your opponent. I wouldn't try to bluff unless u have hand history with your opponent. Even then people are capable of changing their style of play. Bluff less and trap more would be the best IMO.

We all have that day where we just can't seem to get away with a bluff to save our lives.
