Would a good poker player bluff more after a run of bad hands in the belief that his opponents would believe that that he had a normal run of hands?

i should probably let this answer to the good pokerplayers, as i am not one. However my thoughts: i can imagine this to work vs totally unknown, especially for instance in a live poker situation and preflop. Lets say i just got bad cards so opponents thinks i am super tight and now i steal with a bad card thinking that the Opponent respects me.
In online poker good players often know each other, and are well aware of variance. So i would imagine most Players would probably rather rely on their general gmage of their opponents rather than a current bad run. Nevertheless, i mean as far as i can think through it, it would theoretically make sense to adjust ones play, and than in contrast also bluff less while having a rungood, and you bluffed your Opponent out without him seeing your holecards.

I know I do. The reverse holds as well - if I've had a great run of cards recently (especially if I haven't shown down), I will not bluff and if I continue to make good hands I will be extra aggressive.
