Semi-Bluff

A Semi-Bluff Is A Bet Or Raise With A Hand That Is Probably Behind Now But Has Real Outs To Improve, Such As A Flush Draw Or An Open Ended Straight Draw. It Wins In Two Ways: The Opponent Folds Right Away, Or The Draw Completes. That Combination Makes Semi-Bluffs The Backbone Of Most Balanced Bluffing Ranges.
