The thing with a lot of players learning to bluff is that they try and bluff too often and their bluffs often don't make much sense.  If the river card in this video was, for example, the Deuce (2) of Spades, it would be most often incorrect to bluff.  The strongest holding in that spot would bet a set (3 of a kind with two of the cards being your hole cards).  Too often I see new players shoving all in as a bluff in my example and they get called by a pair of Jacks since what they've done is so easy to spot by the trained eye.

What to take from what I just said?  Carefully analyze your spots when to bluff, make sure it's believable (like it is in this video), and don't do it so often that your opponents no longer believe your bluffs.  Most of your betting should be value betting in poker with the right amount of bluffing to keep your opponents guessing and paying you off when you hit your big hands 😀
