How often you pull such a play? Opponents are solid winning regulars (aka tightasses). Good way to get action on sets? Is it a way to "run over them"?

is the plan to push the river if called on the turn? Then even if you miss and get called on the river, you could show that and maybe hit a two pair+ soon...or maybe they won't pay enough attention.

$10 behind, pot on river around $28...not really. Check/check and hope he's on AK or give him "nh+ nc" props for good decision under pressure. With around PSB behind however I'd push.

I got burned many times with bad barrel sizing and lot of times there was not enough money behind to make scary enough river bet.

Actually, now that I'm more awake and looked at it again, in #1 villain potted the turn, and your check raise leaves him with calling $7.5 for $28. Maybe you'd be better off just check/pushing the turn unless you give enough credit to him laying down TPTK/overpairs for the smaller price. Maybe you could just have min raised the turn if this is the case? I think this is good with the kind of read that they are able to lay down top pair. At the least use it as an image builder. I don't do this much at all, though, because at these levels people generally don't lay down TPTK enough. Hopefully some others reply.

...and implied $10 on river if he gets my message "you're going to play it for stacks buddy". Apparently he didn't and called but I gave g00t sucky sucky anyway. I misread him, it is probably still too big play against "solid" regulars. Fact that I was folding machine in last several orbits didn't help me. He liked his KK too much. Fortunately I had assload of outs.

Good option, minraise leaves enough money behind to river bluff and some players are scared when facing turn minraise.

It works wonders for image

Hand #2: he mucked.

Thanks for feedback Benny!
