I'm thinking chicks don't chat tilt maybe as much? Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm voting guy.

sounds reasonable, plus probably the ratio of guys to girls to begin with in online poker is very weighted toward guys

Is there anything particular about this situation that made you choose to wait to the turn to semi-bluff, rather than doing so on the flop?

I wonder if he might fold overcard hands without an ace if we barrel the turn? Perhaps QJ or something. There is the problem that he can't fold a flush draw so you might end up having to barrel again on a non spade river.

The river check-raise is tempting but I think there aren't enough hands that he folds. I doubt he would bet ace high. I don't know about queen high, he probably would fold it to our raise but not sure if he would bet it in the first place. I would expect him to bet/call a lot with a lower pair.

I think if its unethical to switch seats during a a session to get position on a fish, its also unethical to sit with position on a fish in the first place. Which I think you said in there somewhere actually!

with the 64ss? i think honestly it was that a c/c c/r similar line worked against him in an early video. but then the board came poorly here and i didn't change my turn plan (which i should have). i think c/r flop is more standard.

he does have low WTSD as far as i can tell so maybe i figured maybe it's more profitable to get the extra bet out of him (cuz lol obv this play always works and etc)

i think a lot of those types of hands would have 3bet me preflop, so we can discount them some, and yeah i agree the river c/r is fanciful thinking for sure.

yeah true, the whole lobby skills thing can be kinda wearisome at times i guess.

I think probably a turn Ch/C, planning to Ch/F the river is best? Its a weird spot though because we probably are never checking any other type of hand like 55 or AQ or QT very often for balance. I think against lesser showdown bound solid opponents this is potentially a good spot to triple barrel UI targeting A9-AK that is going to have a really tough time calling down. We are basically at the bottom of our range on this board.

(On the right) I think we should consider folding once its two more back to us. Yes, its the same price as our initial call, but we're now up against likely significantly stronger ranges.

I think we should fold to this river raise. I don't see how villain is ever bluffing here after the turn & river smash our flop C/R'ing range and we have a weak player also unlikely to fold.
