Just started playing this game, enjoy it a lot. In the few interviews I've seen, they talk about the importance of bluffing, but really don't go into detail. Wondering if anyone can give me some advice on how to bluff

Look up Bernard Lee’s article on 2-7 on ESPN. It gives you some awesome basic strategies. I’ve ran a tourney for a few years here in CT. I suck at typing but the game is called “Poker in it’s purest form” for a reason!
Try and run a small home game and I guarantee all will enjoy!!

Ha I wish! Tried getting it going at my home game with some new players, they laughed it off and said it wasn't a real game, only NLHE is

. It's one of my favorite to watch but I have nowhere to play it.

As for Bernard Lee's article, I actually read it and watched an interview right after I posted this. Thank you for the recommendation though!

Too bad! It’s a fun game! Hardest thing is trying to get people to try something different .
He’s actually driven down from Mass and played my tourney twice. He took it down the 2nd time. I had a guy come up from NJ to play one night also. Nothing better than calling off your stack with a small pair and being correct!
I haven’t been able to master “snowing” but I do take advantage of the nits when we both draw one and I bet regardless if I’m holding 1010964 or #5 85432 lol!

in 1:1 spots you want to use your WORST catches as bluffs, while in 1:0 you want to use your smallest pairs

1:1 ?! Does that mean both drew one?!
