I like it. Pot is ok sized due to preflop, your hand is credible. I like the turn check too, so draw heavy, I think you would have to bet both turn and river here unimproved and given the chance he calls down anyway or is slowplaying, I like the check behind.

Hi all

Ok, so made another river bluff raise. I saw a post by DD on 2p2 in which he said that most players should look for more bluff raises on river scare cards. The thing is, I am prolly pretty poor at implementing them...

Anyhoo. Good 1?

Oh, villain is german clone. Which means 25/18 multitabling TAG with no skills.

I have changed sn today so I am unknown to him.


Party 10/20

Preflop
Folded to villain who raises in SB. Hero 3-bets Ts9s

Flop 6SB
6c Qh Ah

Villain c/c (This means he has a piece of the board. Anything between marginal hands, draws and monsters which he is expertly slowplaying)

Turn 3.9BB
[6c Qh Ah] Jc

Villain checks, Hero checks (?)

River 3.9BB
[6c Qh Ah Jc] Tc

Villain bets, hero insta raises..?


I think I rep a lot of Kings, but should I still do it if my read is that this guy has limited hand reading capabilities?

all I can say is...

if I was villain...
you checked the turn, and raised me on the river.
I only call with a K or better.
with Ax, I might call but I doubt it.
(unless I check my notes and it says \"bluffer\"...lol)

Yes, you can rep a king just fine, but what is he bet/folding on the river? Seems like he would c/c Qx and maybe Ax as well. I think the best shot of this working is if he has 2pair and is going for value vs whatever broadway, etc you have. OF course he is bluffing a lot here too, but you beat pure bluffs. I guess I like it overall because calling to beat his bluffs sucks, and he will fold better hands sometimes. I just think most of the better hands he might fold, he probably wouldn\'t bet anyway.

I like the turn check
