Re: 20/40: Semi-bluffing and then calling down
I probably play it the same. There are two things I will point out and that I might try if I know the player fairly well. The first being that against some players you can raise sixth here and be willing to fold to a 3-bet. It take stones for him to come back over the top. However, a very good player might know to simply call your raise ( acting like hes not full yet but holds some hand like QQ/JJ in the pocket ) and then check-raise you on the river. The second thing is that against most soild players you can simply fold when they bet the river here. The fact that you have a flush should be obvious and he usually shouldnt have a reason to think you'll fold it once you called sixth. This of course assumes that this player dosent think you're capable of tough folds.
