Okay, here's a typical bluff attempt. As you can see, I had no intentions at any point to do anything beyond bluffing. Tell me why this is wrong:


No Limit Hold'em CryptoLogic ($NL)
Converted by FTRConv
5-handed

StacksSB: $58.83
Hero: $84.25
UTG: $117.50
CO: $139.82
BTN: $99.75


Pre-Flop: Hero is BB with 5 A
UTG folds, CO folds, BTN folds, SB raises to $2, Hero calls

Flop:($4.50) 9 J 3 (2 players)
SB bets $5, Hero calls

Turn:($14.50) 9 (2 players)

SB bets $8, Hero raises to $21, SB raises to $51.83 and is all-in, Hero folds, SB doesn't show hand
Final Pot: $64.50


This hand - not technically a blind steal as I had a top 25% hand - should I have slowed down earlier? Should I have bet the river? Villain 15/6/0.6 and played hard when he played:

No Limit Hold'em CryptoLogic ($NL)
Converted by FTRConv
6-handed

StacksBTN: $52.08
Hero: $103.25
BB: $97.50
UTG: $151.82
UTG+1: $159.50
CO: $98.50


Pre-Flop: Hero is SB with K T
UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, CO folds, BTN folds, Hero raises to $4, BB calls

Flop:($8.50) K 3 4 (2 players)
Hero bets $5, BB calls

Turn:($18.50) A (2 players)
Hero bets $12, BB calls

River:($42.50) 7 (2 players)
Hero checks, BB checks
Final Pot: $42.50
