Nice read,You should tend to bluff in situations where your opponent would never think to bluff. After all, what matters is what your opponent thinks, not what makes sense. Bluff from early position. Bluff small pots. Bluff in hands where you have shown weakness rather than strength. Find situations to bluff in Omaha8, where most people think bluffing is impossible. Bluff when you take three cards in draw, not when you take one. Bluff when your opponent will think: “Naah, he wouldn’t bluff here.”
