That's why it is skimmed over in most books. The cash game or ring game I agree - it all depends on YOUR table image. I stole a pot last month with 83o LOL - I was pretty much done bluffing once THAT was shown down!

The situation will dictate. Just to give you a few quick examples: At the begining of a tournament everyone plays pretty tight. This is a good time to pick off some pots as no one wants to go broke in the first couple of hours. Another great time to bluff is when everyone is on the bubble just before making the money. No one wants to bust out on the bubble, thus, you would be shocked as to what hands they are willing to lay down. In a cash game, one has to "earn" their bluffs. Play some qualitity hands and start out tight. If you show down hands, make sure you have the nuts. People will be alot less likely to call your bluffs when have shown quality hands, especially when you bluff from early position. Everyone expects a bluff from the button, very few expect one from you when you are first to act. There is no set % of anything. The situation will dictate.
