I am startin to take shots at 50nl. What do you think of this hand?
noone has done anythign out of the ordinary and we haven;t seen too many flops.
Is this worth it or spewwy? I called turn bet with open ender and was goign to bluff any club as well, but bluffed the second 8 as I didn' see it helping him and it was somewhat scary card to alot of 1 pair hands.

to make this a profitable bluff, we want to know if CO is going to bet out with a drawing hand on the turn, and if he would fold Qx to a river bet.

CO has shit, playing back on the turn would be pretty ideal, however with such a draw heavy board we would have to spew all over the river as well.

I didn't put him on a very strong hand checking the flop and it doesn't make much sense checking that flop and betting this turn. Looks like one of those turns where lp gets checked to and thinks any bet can take it down then give up later if played back at. I think he likely would have folded Qx to my river bet.

Might be spewwy but I felt when I called turn I had to bet most rivers.

Lead the turn, everyone who has had a chance/initiative to bet at the pot has failed to do so.

you are taking the bluffiest line in the history of poker. Just fold everywhere, including turn.

LOL, yes

best hand on flop = most probably best hand on river, hence you'll never get Ax or even semi-stationy Qx to fold here

You're representing nothing with this line. Just bet the turn.

Gross line, it's almost as if you had a really good hand and challenged yourself to make the least money on the hand as possible without folding.
