Look bluffy enough to be a value bet?
 

5/5 PL homegame. about an hour in.

I (1700) make it 20 in EP with KK, one EP call (1000), folded to CO who calls (4000), blind (1500) comes too. CO is pretty good, EP is pretty bad, blind is meh.

flop (85): 449 two spades. I have the K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I pot it at 85, fold, CO calls, fold.

turn (255): 9

check, check

river (255): non spade 8

I bet 200

i'd bet less, but in a revved up home game that can be good. what's the max he will call with an ace? what's the max he'll call with a pocket pair between 9 and 4? which do you want to shoot for?

I was really looking for a slim call from 55-qq. i think co gets that i'm not throwing a party like everyone else and so knows he can't play AQ etc. against my EP raise even if it is ahead sometimes. wasn't really thinking he'd make the call with like AK, but maybe if i bet 150 or less. i really felt this was a VB against another PP or quads, which would obviously raise me here.
