genearly in that game there isnt much bluff inducing. And this definitly definitly is not the spot. The chances of him having 10's-k's and calling a river bet is about 95% more likely then him having kq or kj high and bluffing. In fact if he bets id say its 90% he thinks hes value betting and u have to checkraise.

I agree, cr the flop. But as it was played...

So check/calling to induce a bluff is probably wrong, but is checkraising better than betting?

What hands pay off a betout and don't bet if checked to? I think 77 may be the only one.

If I'm checking it's with the intention of checkraising.

i like betting here. Its almost as if he's trying to get you to bluff. It feels like he has a mid to high pair, bets the flop and decides he'll take a showdown for just 1 more big bet instead of opening himself up to the possibility of being checkraised. I bet here because i see him checking behind with JJ too often.

This looks like a pretty lousy place to induce a bluff to me. He's already shown that he's probably not in love with his hand by checking the turn. Also, he hasn't been given a particularly great opportunity to bluff; that five is not very scary all things considered.

I'd just bet because I think he pays you off with worse hands way more often then he bluffs.

Doesn't a c/r fold out a pair and get me in trouble vs. an A?

If it's that easy, then wouldn't you checkraise any ace-high flop vs. a preflop raiser?
