Should I bluff? (Ignore my location, please)
Villain is TAG. Not really a good player, but somewhat thinking. Takes decent lines and is fairly aggressive, but doesn't really tailor his play properly to opponents, not a good hand reader, etc. I'm sure he's a winner in the games, but he also got stacked with open trips no kicker in this session. I'm not sure if it was a situation where I would have called or not since I wasn't really paying attention. So obviously not world class, but not a donk at all either. Numbers are 33/12 or something over 100ish hands. Only goes to showdown around 20% or so. So somewhat weak postflop.

What is his hand range and is this a good spot to bluff? If so, how much? |

Whats up with the gross flop bet? [/ QUOTE ] I didn't ask about the flop bet. But for the sake of open discussion (although I'd rather not discuss it in this thread) it is the same type of flop bet I made in my other thread with KQ on a T9x flop. I am underbetting the pot a lot lately and really liking the results. But this is neither here nor there. How about talking about the turn? |

He just check called and then bet out big- it looks like there is a good chance he was trying to slow play a set. You do not even have a re-draw against most of his hands. Time to fold this.

i hope you realize the A makes straight its not an impossible card for him, it's actually pretty likely, i think all your bluff is going to do in this situation is lose you money.

An ace doesn't make a straight. A 4 makes a straight.

Continuation bet in this hand = bad.
Bluffing the turn = worse. JMO |

You just check and fold in this hand? What hand range do you put him on with this turn bet?

[/ QUOTE ] I think he at worst has a set, or he has 44 for the straight...you raised preflop so representing the 4 is crazy....he knows you don't have one. I don't think a bluff folds out anything other than middle pocket pairs that haven't connected with this board. |

With 3 villians calling preflop, I think this is one of those spots to not continuation bet. I wouldn't be putting any more money in the middle and just move on to the next hand. As played, I just think you have to give him credit for a hand and fold the turn. Is his hand range strong enough to call a raise from you? I think so. You PFR'd and bet the flop despite there being 3 villians in the hand with you. He has to consider that you have a strong enough hand to do this with, like JJ-AA. He still leads into you. Give him credit for a nh and move on. |
