Villain in the hand is a mass tabling regular, probably slightly on the tighter side preflop and more straightforward postflop. Thoughts on bluff catching this river with Q hi?

I call.

He doesn't have a 9 or a T. So he's either value-betting Ahi or it's a bluff. For the odds, it's a call 100% of the time.

why doesn't he have a ten? or a pocket pair?

i think i might bet the river myself as a bluff if i want one bet to go in. vs a straightforward grinder i think c/c this river is -ev

BBB, are you reading the board right? Bluffing Q hi here doesn't make any sense at all to me as he's only calling with better and folding worse. Also, a PP on this board is a bluff.

oh, whoops, was not reading it right

thanks

hm, not sure what to choose now. will he bet ace high for value on river? or counterfeit pps as a bluff?

I'm guessing both, but some of the time he'll check the Ahi but never check back a counterfeited PP

I think I generally agree. Perhaps there is a chance he checks back 88/77, but I think he will bluff with the rest.
