Default Bluff Central 30/60

PRF is raising a lot preflop, don't know other guy. Plan was to call a turn raise and check/fold river if I miss. Check/call if I pair up, and check/raise if I hit flush.

PokerStars 30/60 Hold'em (7 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (6.50 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, Button calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (4.75 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP folds, Button calls.

River: (6.75 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button folds.

Final Pot: 7.75 BB

The idea basically being that no one has an ace probably, and there's a decent chance no one has a pocket pair and I take it down right there.

I don't hate it at this limit, especially since you're a player who can lay off the brakes sometimes (e.g. this is a better bet for you than for me).

I like it too. I wouldn't have felt too great about following through on the river after button coldcalled preflop, called the flop and called the turn, but with J high you have no choice.

I agree, betting the river is a must here as there is little reason to think he has an A (would raise turn most likely since he prob doesnt fear your kicker since you were in blinds). Can't allow yourself to lose this pot to a K high flush draw.

Why not c/r the flop? The have to invest a half less to bluff and gives your hand some deception if you hit.

I don't play much 7 handed, but is this a call preflop? I would have folded.
