I know this is a tangent, but have people been in situations where a bluff can work against better players, because it is obviously protected?

A pure bluff raise is only good if the players you're up against are folding rivers a ton or they're really scared of you. It's almost never a good play especially online. It's superrare that more than 1 player would fold the river for 1 more bet after already putting in a bet. Usually, it would be correct for them to call anyway.

A better play is when you have something like 2nd pair good kicker and an obvious draw comes in, a tight/good player bets, superdonk calls, and you raise. You're very sure you have the donk beat and it's very tough for the good player to call not closing the action after you raised two players on the river.
