5/10 line check

[Heimdal]

Same villain in both hands. Maybe a little too loose. He bought in for $200. When he raised my flop bet I decided to do stop and go.

I suck at bluffing, maybe I should just stop. I dont know where it went wrong here. On river I put him on something like 54 or 77 and thought I could make him fold. Thoughts?

hand 2 this bluff isn't believable b/c unless you have 87 you would be afraid of it, so I'd look you up on that river with most pairs.

[creedofhubris]

hand 1 looks fine.

hand 2, if he's loose/passive just check the river, he'll check behind and you'll beat 4x a fair amount of the time.
