Holdem is a game that changes at every hand. Each hand provides new cards to play, and new challenges to overcome. Players switch up their strategies. The pace of betting changes. The order of betting changes. From hand to hand, Holdem evolves and devolves into many different forms.
Now, there is little you can do to predict the cards that will appear in any given hand, and in fact, doing so can be a detriment to your game. However, there are hands that can clue you in to what your opponents are planning to do in later hands.
Often, bluffs are built slowly. You don't just bluff right away, you develop a level of false trust and predictability in your opponents. You get them to believe your bluffs are your regular play style.
You can witness other players try to build this false confidence over the course of a few hands, and from how they play those hands, you can develop a sense of how they will play other hands, both similar and different.
Use these guiding hands to determine your own course of action in response to your opponents'.
