Bluff now or later?

[ajmargarine]

Passive villian seems likely to call you down. Bluff later, as in, next week or next month. Allowing yourself one bluff per month is a good guide to follow. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Still, I don't think he would call with A high or a pair of fives, which are pretty likely hands. I certainly think a half pot stab somewhere in this hand is +EV.

You say he's loose and passive. What's his preflop raising standards like? Loose to me means alot of limping preflop. When a loose passive guy raises PF UTG, my radar goes up. When he bets the flop, I don't mind giving him credit until shown otherwise. If he's passive postflop, he may be sitting there with AA right now and go into c/c mode thinking you surely have QJ. LAP's see monsters under the bed everywhere, IMO.
