On 643, lots fold. With gs, maybe 15% will fold.

Frequencies >>>>>>>>>>>>> Blockers.
The problem with blocker talk is that, in practice, one attends to blockers at the expense of frequencies. In fact, frequencies so vastly outweigh blockers in two card Holdem that a good rule is that blockers don't mean s***.

They do, often. The fact is that large bluff bets are marginally profitable on even the driest boards versus the small-stakes population*. This is the main reason why you once saw so many 20bb/100 old school HU players with ridiculous skyward redlines matched by freefall blue lines; they ran crazy bluff ratios and put fish on blast for stacks.
I don't know how many of them are still around though. You can get killed fast doing that versus anyone on the ball.
*Like all marginal spots, a thinly right play can easily become wrong given even weak information.
