Default Re: i semi-bluff raise you,,,

A litttle drunk, so bear with me. This is all aussming Villain is decent, aka. average.

With the preflop cap, a semi-conscious player will put you automatically on AK, JJ-AA. Rasing the the turn will not fold (which is what you hope to accomplish) Villain's TT-AA, AJ, AQ, only maybe AK and KQ. So as of know, I see only AK and KQ possibly folding with a turn raise. Not good.

But, wait! What if Villain has a low or mid PP 99-22? Well, 99-77 isn't folding either after the turn. 66 might fold, but that is very unlikely. He would have to be almost 100% you have JJ. So after the turn, with a low-mid PP, villain will also fold along KQ and AK, 22-55. But if Villain had 22-55, you SHOULD HAVE RAISED THE FLOP, and that would have sent him packing.

So, so far with your turn raise you only hope to fold AK, KQ, and possibly 22-55. With villains range of possible hands AND this board, NOt good; I hate the turn raise. The end.
