Good bluff against a bad player, which perhaps makes it a bad bluff. I don't know.

It's a good bluff, but you can't bluff out an idiot.

The idiot had a pair of aces with an adequte kicker against an overaggressive opponent, and was sitting on a low stack. The idiot read the situation perfectly. I hereby award the idiot with bling.

You know I like ya spino, but the only idiot here was the guy who didn't believe when he was called for $15 on the turn, and then tried to employ fold equity he didn't have against a lowstack. On top of that you repped a straight that a preflop raiser would likely NOT have.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

Well, you could argue that a good bluff is one where the other player is likely to fold.

Calling stations aren't likely to fold any mediocre hand, he obviously has at least a pair of aces here, and is evidently a calling station.

Sorry saxton, I thought you were the thread starter for some reason.
