My thinking was that the paired flop bet had some scare power. A paired flop leaves only 5 cards that can connect with it vs a non paired flop where 9 cards connect. I guess it had 2 clubs so the clubs could aslo connect. I can not easilly do the math on the chance of suited pocket clubs being in play, anyone?

So betting a paired flop represents trips or two pair and should be hard to call. Unless of course I am crushed.

Villains call on the flop was scary. His check on the river and my absolute nothing of a hand forced my river bet.

Comments on all streets welcome.

Any thoughts in general on the paired flop bluff are also welcome. The paired board bluff is more of a NL ring game move but it may be useful in STT play.
