Mid Stakes Shorthanded NL Poker Forums

Hello, Villain in this hand is a nit 18/14 who cbets 82% flop, only 30% turn and he's quite passive and seems a little scared too. We don't have any particular history.
SB and BB are both tight players, so I think calling preflop is ok.

What is the optimal size on this river?

Without a lot of history people especially nits fold to $120 type bets with their Ax hand.

So id bet like $70 trying to rep hands that want him to fold diamonds.

this is a great spot to bluff v the described player, so you need to work hard to induce a call

$70 seems good
