faking donkey bluffs?

[Tommyhawkers 0]

Don't forget to keep this in your arsenal in NL. Anything there's four to a flush and the board is paired giving me a boat, I just push. (Unless of course, there's reason to believe they have a higher boat)And the correct way to make donkey soup, voila:PRE-FLOPFoShizzleBoy calls $1, $0.50, macsacesbaby checks.FLOP [board cards AS,JC,4S ]lctom235 checks, macsacesbaby checks, FoShizzleBoy checks.TURN [board cards AS,JC,4S,10S ]lctom235 checks, macsacesbaby checks, FoShizzleBoy bets $2, lctom235 folds, macsacesbaby calls $2.RIVER [board cards AS,JC,4S,10S,JS ]macsacesbaby bets $1, FoShizzleBoy bets $70.10 and is all-in, macsacesbaby calls $61 and is all-in.SHOWDOWNFoShizzleBoy shows [ JD,10H ]macsacesbaby shows [ 5H,QS ]FoShizzleBoy wins $8.10, FoShizzleBoy wins $129.SUMMARYDealer: Stevieb80Pot: $139.10, (including rake: $2)Stevieb80, loses $0lctom235, loses $1macsacesbaby, loses $65madkraker, loses $0AMiller, loses $0chucklequack, loses $0ATrain06, loses $0FoShizzleBoy, bets $73.10, collects $137.10, net $64Abroller42, loses $0Oh, and I usually don't call with JTo UTG....yum. Push with boats, always, so 4 flushes can make crying calls. (I seem to get a call more than a third of the times I've done this.)

Depends on the stakes and the sites... but yes, that's usually a very profitable move. They just can't seem to remember that they're in this for less than 10% of what you bet, and IF you did it with a bad spade, they're WAAAAAAY good to get paid.I've noticed this doesn't work nearly as well live, by the way. I think it has something to do with physically pushing chips away from you into the pot vs. pointing and clicking.
