    it completely depends on your attitude to your poker
    you have to think what matters more, enjoying your game or making a profit
    mixing your play up can be interesting, so try playing tight for a while and you'll find you can bluff a lit more easily

    Maybe heads up...................

    bluffing only20% of the game in mtts, and 50% in hu, if you like that part hu is the way to go nb improving the rest of the game WILL make it more enjoyable, out playing someone down all streets is far more rewarding than a straight bluff.
