A fancy play I make against certian players. How stupid?

feurinho78 just sat down and posted the BB.
He is a 59/37/2.45 and he likes to push me around.

I was planning to take this line when I raised preflop. I knew he would 3-bet preflop and bet every street.

How stupid?

If you think he can laydown, it might be a good play.

The only thing is, is the 7 a good card to do this on? I'd prefer an ace.

I think he think I'm slow playing two pair. I don't think he thinks the 7 helped me.

Seems very expensive if it fails, is it really worth it? I would think that if you wanted to do this a check/raise on the turn accomplishes your objective for 1 BB less. Also you might have more folding equity because their effective odds are now less.

even though he sucks, he's probably the last type of player I'd want to raise J high against out of position headsup. he's coming along, and he's going to try to take the pot away at some point.

That's true. This is an easy fold PF without my super sneaky plan to check-raise the river no matter what.

bluff raising the river with a higher frequency than normal is profitable against this type of opponent, but i would only smooth call preflop or perhaps even fold, especially if you know you're gonna be 3 bet.

Thats a terrible fold preflop.

This player is a good hand reader, very agressive, and will put you to the test every hand.

So just to clarify, are you saying fold pf or jiust smooth call? Situations like this have been puzzling me lately
