I haven't posted a hand in a while as most are uninteresting or simple mistakes. However, a few days ago I made the biggest bluff of my life, and I can't seem to decide if it was a mistake. What do you think? Here it is from memory:
5 handed Hero~ 900 Villian~ 1100 V is a solid player definitely capeable of making big laydowns. Villian UTG raises to 20, folded to Hero on the button who calls with AcQd, blinds fold. Flop: 7h 8d 10h Villian bets 35, Hero raises to 150, Villian calls. Turn: Qh Villian checks, Hero checks. River: 3h Villian bets 150, Hero pushes. |

i don't like it much, raise of 500 would have gotten the same job done and you are basically gambling he doens't have Ah w/o much evidence to believe that he doens't.

what better hands are you trying to fold here and what hand are you trying to represent with that line.
edit: nm just noticed suits. smaller river raise accomplishes the same thing as allinlife said. |

[/ QUOTE ] well my thoughts at the time were that i overbet the nuts pretty often, so i thought an overbet might be more believable. |

1) If you're Villian and you have KxKh, JxJh, 9x9h, would you call this bet based on my line? You've only see me all-in overbet once, and that was when I had top set.
2) Could you see yourself playing AhKh the way Villian played his hand? |

[/ QUOTE ] No, I don't think I could call a push without the Ah. Huge river orbets are either pure air or pure nuts, and at the 200 or 400 level (granted, I haven't played much 400, just stretching my bankroll a bit) it's usually the nuts. But yes, I think this is exactly how I'd play AhKh if I were Villain. |

I don't mind the end bluff but 450-500 will fold him most every time without the Ah. I bet the turn though. You need to find out where you are at and if you have to fold you're not losing any key draws.

[/ QUOTE ] I'd say I bet 150 on the river with AK[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] about 1% of the time. 90% of the time, I'm checking and hoping to induce a bluff since he can't even have the second nuts to call me with and the other 9% of the time I'm pushing myself to look like a bluff. |

Against a more aggressive opponent, I'd check, but against most passive Villains, I'd bet (probably not that much though). I didn't really think the river through, I think checking to induce a bluff is much better here. You're right.

Oh also, I'd bet the turn with the nuts.
