Default Re: Induce the bluff biatch!

First of all without a specific read I will RARELY "induce a bluff" as I find people will call with a pair of deuces but will less likely bet.

Secondly in the rare occasion where I do pull this move, I always have a hand better than ace High.

You stated, "Here's where it happens. He either has a pair or he doesnt. If he doesnt have me beat, hes probably not going to call a river bet from me. If he does have me beat, he probably will call a river bet."

Yes you are correct, the problem is the percentage of the time someone will bet in this spot with a no pair hand is pretty small. So without a "overagressive bluffing dude" read your average player will more likely fold a pair of 2's than bet Queen high. Maybe other will disagree but I pretty much dislike your example.
