A Great Bluff
Posted Thu Mar 24, 2005 11:17 am GMT by Skribbles This was 2nd or 3rd hand in a $10+$1 tounry on Pokerstars. I had decided before the tourny started that I was going to play alot of hands and be very aggresive, not caring if I busted out early (the reason why I was raising with K7c). I had absolutely no read on the guy but I smelled weakness all over this guy.
You should have seen how irrate he got after he folded and I showed my cards. PRICELESS.
My strategy worked for a while until I had pocket 4's.... flop 334... I push in.... big stack calls with JJ.... sure enough the turn was a J.
