ATE was talking to "Hans "tuna" Lund last year, and he told me he had played like 300 tournaments (multi table) in about two months. Anyone who has ever seen Hans work, you know he works HARD. So, I'm sure this figure is correct.
But, the message is good. Even a gutterball straight draw semi bluff, is FAR better than a total bluff. Now, if you have a huge stack, and the bluff is not more than 1-15th or so of your stack, it can be a good play, in and of itself, PROVIDING that the amount of the bet is not so small, that it has no chance of working.
If you bet 2000, into a 10000 pot, YOU''RE GOING TO GET CALLED (almost every time)
But, if you have 150,000, and bet 7000 into a 10000, pot, it can be a good play (in a tournament) Watch out for bluffing, in situations where the opponent can just buy more chips.
Look for situations, where the person CANNOT buy more. In live games, if you know someone is on a short bankroll, Wife won't let 'em buy more, etc.
