Yeah, the fix is in OR you're not paying attention to your opponents and
taking notes. You want people making those calls, unless you're bluffing.
If you're bluffing and they call, make a note and don't bluff them again.
I was able to bluff two nice pots in the PLO RGP tourney with the bare
ace on a flush flop. That's because it was a knowledgeable table. Would
I try that in a random PLO ring game? Hell no! Of course, I would raise
the pot with the nut flush hoping someone would chase their set or 2 pair.
If they catch, that's poker.
Face it. It's a lot easier to convince yourself that the fix is in than
it is to admit you have leaks in your game.
