Poker without Cards—Bluff Outs The universal tell in poker is called betting! Poker without Cards—Bluff Outs Poker without Cards—Bluff Outs Introduction No-limit hold'em is a game of ins and outs, need and speed, aggravation and acceleration. Counting your outs—the number of cards that will complete your hand—is something to reconsider, thanks to what I call the Bluff Outs: additional scare cards that, if they hit, you bet out, forcing your opponent to fold.

The trap is thinking we can milk them forever. Just like in crypto and sports betting, the worst mistake is overstaying a heater. The best players know when to cash out. ...

Some variables—like learner engagement, external factors, or even cosmic alignment—remain beyond our control. But fear not! We embrace the unknown, armed with informed decisions and a dash of courage. Outcome vs. Decision Quality Picture this: You’re at the poker table, eyeing your hand. The flop reveals its secrets, and you’re faced with a choice. Do you chase the flush, hoping for that elusive fifth heart? Or do you fold gracefully, preserv...
