3 barrel bluff
 

I wasn't going to fire again on the river, but his bet felt like a cheap blocking bet. PS $33 Deep Stack. Early in tourney. No reads.

So, what hand did you lose to?

Re: 3 barrel bluff
 

You don't think he bets here with a T and makes sure he gets paid off? I can't fault you for making a play because you thought he was weak, but the last thing he wants you to do here is check behind.

Unless villain had two of them how could he possibly still be in the hand?

Re: 3 barrel bluff
 

The villain opened for 3x. It's early, stacks are deep. I think his range is pretty enormous, and he has enough chips to try to From the passive way he's played this hand I'd say JTs, is completely a possibility, given that he opened with it. If he puts the OP on a missed ace he very well may see a turn. The turn J either pairs him, with JT or gives him a draw. The nine gives him two pair, or straight.

Either way, I think his range here is large enough given the situation that he's betting for value, not blocking, on the end.
