Value bet or induce the bluff? Close enough that I suspect it doesn't matter.

I have a question for you then, Clark: If this is the case, does it become better to check/call here in order to avoid the instances where you bet and get raised?

Thanks.

the thing is, when you bet and get raised, it's just as if you bet and got called by a 9.

i.e. it's a pretty simple fold on the river if you get raised.

Except that this is only true if there's a 0% chance your opponent could do this with a worse holding.

What if you're against a tricky opponent holding a lower PP or busted flush draw, who says, "ya know, there's a lot of money in this pot, and I've seen this wild reckless Vehn bet a whole lot of hands, but become paper mache to raises. Maybe he's been betting something I can get him off of with a raise? I don't have to succeed often to make this work, so, sure, let's make a play on the pot."
