Default Re: Thin Value Bet?: NL $400

I definately considered the $100 bet... but I thought that it looked too much like a value bet, and would scare off any one pair hands.

Perhaps I just need to bluff like that more often.

i like the bet because i feel like we would have heard from a hand that'd beating us by this point on the river. Can you see a set/K-J checking down to us on the river very often? I think K-J might but no set does.

I bet $200. BB Folds. MP almost times out, and calls with K7s, and MHIG.

I updated my notes on MP after the hand, of course.

Since you're LAGing it up, I bet here. Good chance you get called by a worse hand. It'll look like you missed your flush after a semibluff.

I'd bet how much you bet on a river "bluff" earlier. Me I like a slight overbet of the pot to make it fishy.

Sweet...I was hoping for the bunny with a pancake on its head picture. But hey, any humorous picture is good.

the only K i see that u beat is KT...and i'm not sure villian called you with that after your flop raise.

So, there is no point in value betting busted draws.

I think not betting this is a sin. I'd bet 1/3 to 1/2 of the pot. You have two pairs. Any king should call that after you checked the turn.

Especially with the LAG image. You must bet this.

What Ks are out there, vs. two decently tight players?

Do you bluff here with missed clubs? I might. That makes an even better reason to value bet here IMO.

I doubt anyone checked river with any hand that beats you here... 90% of the time.
