Hero holds A♠ 5♠ on a Q♥ 8♠ 4♠ 2♣ K♣ board. Hero considers a river bluff. Hero's A♠ blocks one combination of A♠ K♠ and two combinations of A♠ Q♠.
- Villain's value is reduced from 24 to 21 combinations, making the bluff more profitable.
- Hero blocks 12.5% of Villain's total range, which is always the threshold for a profitable bluff.
- The bluff becomes less profitable because Hero blocks 'air' hands that would fold anyway.
- Villain's range is unchanged because A♠ 5♠ is not a nut hand.
