Result: The Rebluff
Result: I said "3-bet," reached for my chips, and was suddenly covered in yellow. Villain insta-mucked his hand to my 3-bet and said, "Ach! I figured I'd catch you bluffing this time."
And yes, he said, "Ach!"
As for Rubenstein: "You knew looking at the flop that he'd check the flop *and* the turn?"
After I checked behind him on the flop, he gave me a look like that said, "Huh. I guess you have crap." When he checked the turn I had a very strong feeling that he was inviting me to BLUFF (as opposed to betting with goods). Hence, my 3-bet. Reads like this are few and far between. And even then, they're not always good.
But I felt confident in this one.
Glad I was right.
And...incidentally...I guess I had the winner all along.
