I like this post because these are all times when people are most commonly going to bluff. I personally just look at how people have been playing and their betting patterns like you said in section A i believe. If someone raises preflop and the flop comes 237 and their still pushing hard they probably dont have too much. I get the most confident when I call someones big bluff with a marginal hand.

bluff is also very important in poker. On the one hand everything should be done to make your opponents never be able to read your cards or guess your intentions during the game.

pot amount

This is an extremely important factor on the size of your bluff. Pot size, much like position is a pivotal aspect that all players need to consider before making a move. For instance, if you decide to bluff a large pot, you had better make sure your bet is substantial enough to make your opponents odds for calling be miniscule. If you are trying to take down the pot, a minimum bet will most definitely NOT work.

BLUFFING rules i say the key to bluffing is goin all the way putting the man to a decision for all of their chip works best in all very slight situations i find i think if your gonna bluff you gotta be prepared to go out.

I have been told that even when you bluff you should have something. Your bluff is that you don't have the best possible hand that you want your opponent to think you have. Add that to the expectation that your bluff should be enough chips to commit your opponent and you should be able to steal the chips. I would also agree that the bluff shouldn't be a major change in your style of play. (So either be consistent with your play, or keep changing your play).

I don't see people bluff as much at ring tables vs. tournaments. Of course, I have not played many ring tables, so I can't speak from much experience there.

I couldn't figure out from the suggestions below if it related to the type of table you were at - ring, sng, mtt.

You cannot stick into a tournament without making bluffs.
Especcialy at the ends of the tournament. When you need to steel some pots.
