Interesting line. Tricky to say the least.

Question for you..what kind of table is it?

I think I spew chips like this sometimes. It's something I'm trying to fix.

I think the flop check-raise is very LAG. What do you think this bluff will acomplish? It doesn't seem like CO will fold his hand for one bet so I agree that this is chip-spewing. Can you explain your reasoning a little better?

Why do you think the raise is supposed to fold the CO? The raise is to fold the 2 players in the field between Hero and the CO.

It's not a bluff. Does that help?

I think the chances of folding the two players between you and the LAG (who coldcalled once already in a pot not nearly as big), combined with the chances you have the best hand against the LAG, combined with the chances that a LAG will not 3-bet a flush draw or a pair are not that good. I think it worked on this hand, but I don't think it will work often enough. Plus, there is no reason to bet the river.

The two players between me and CO has already indicated that they donīt like their hands by checking in late position. Unless they are on a flushdraw I think there is a HUGE chance of folding them out with a raise.
CO didnīt CC preflop. he was a poster in this hand, and since he just called my raise I think he can have pretty much any two cards judging by his stats.
And when the flop gets checked to him on the flop I think he will bet here with a lot of hands. I think I have good chances that my hand is good here. Especially since he didnīt reraise on the flop.

I agree that my river bet was a bad one though...

I think this is great. You isolated yourself with the LAG, knocking out two hands that might have called one bet and had you beat at showdown. It's not unlike my AQo hand I just posted where I cut off an overcall from a likely better hand to isolate with a LAG.
