In limit poker, bluffing is more effective in smaller pots than in large pots for the simple reason that, in large pots, there is simply too much money at stake for players to fold against the cost of a few more bets. With good pot odds and a lot of money at stake, it is hard to force savvy players from the sweet corn in the fields.

If an opponent is looking at a 1 in 3 chance of winning, and a bet to play would cost but 1/15 of the pot, it would be foolish not to play with such good odds. Of course, bluffing opportunities may present themselves in any type of situation. Generally speaking, though, bluffs are much more effective in small pots for the reason given above.

With small pots, on the other hand, the thinking is the opposite: opponents will feel it is not worth playing for a small pot at the cost of a big bet unless they either think they have you beat with what you may be representing, they have good pot odds, or they don't buy your representation of a strong hand. Otherwise, the pot odds simply aren't favorable to challenge for the pot with an inferior hand.

Unlike in a low stakes casino game, a bluff in medium to high limit games may register from the opening bell right down to the final round. With more money at stake, players are less subject to the "friendly game syndrome" of staying in the pot a few rounds. They may immediately fold if the betting is too large for the value of their hand.

In casino and club poker games, a rule of thumb is that the higher the stakes, the better the level of player. As you play in higher stake games, your effectiveness in chasing opponents out of the pot will improve. The simple fact is that good players respect situational betting and can be bluffed.

Of course, you have to pick your spots. Every game has its mix of strong and weak players, and you'll need to learn as the game goes on who you can bluff, and who just won't understand he should be exiting the action. Poor players don't see the table well and, as we discussed earlier, don't realize that their hands can't support the action there. Players who cannot be bluffed are players who play too many pots. If you find opponents like that in your game, that's good anyway.
