Its not necessarily default, but I often am able to snap off bluffs from draws on the river when I check mediocre hands on the turn, some similar examples:

(player in hand 2 didnt like to fold, I felt like I likely had 7+ outs on the flop and I could extract A LOT if I hit straight.)
Anyways, in the original hand I checked the turn cuz I didn't want to get checkraised and have to fold a hand with likely a lot of outs. However I was planning on calling a river bet if the river was below a 10, as my line looked very weak and bluffable. I didn't feel like his line was an A at all, at the time I just put him on missed diamonds and was fairly sure.
I did call and he had Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]10[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and MHIG.
However, I did not post it here cuz I thought I made a great play. I posted it because I was ridiculed in the chat afterwards, and looking back on the hand it seemed to be my most controversial play of the nite. (well other than the other hand I posted which I KNEW was played badly even as I played it. grrrrrrr.)
With you two both saying that my river call was -EV, then it probably was, I guess I just got lucky here.
Thanks for the criticism, I have been running extremely hot recently, but I know my game needs a lot of improvement.
