    Poker: It’s not about the cards in your hand. It’s about the card’s the other guy thinks are in your hand.

      It’s all that, until someone calls your bluff. Then it becomes all about the cards in your hand.

        But they do have to call. Sure you bluff but are you bluffing this time, it is not just about winning this hand. Bluffing, and losing, a hand or two early in a game is a great way to encourage an opponent to make that big dollar call later in the game, hopefully when you are not bluffing this time…
