2/4 - river c/r bluff

Villain is a good reg running 28/20/3.4, SB is a passive fish. Villain and I have played a lot, but not in the last 6 months. My notes indicate that he's creative and solid and might think I'm stationy, but probably not bluffy.

I'm kind of torn on this one, I mean if SB is a passive fish I doubt villan will be betting the flop light, not with you to act aswell. All the broadway straights and BDFD missed which makes me think villan won't fold Ax.
Are you playing a set this way, i'd imagine you'd atleast raise the turn? Seems like your only really repping Ax that has two pair.

You're repping basically nothing and it's not much more for him to call so I don't like it.

You might get him off AK if you think he bets that on the river. Certainly best line with 22 and maybe ATs. He also folds his three broadway heart combos and any worse made hands that he decided to turn into bluffs himself. His huge turn bet is pretty scary though so I'm guessing he snapped with TT?

Not true at all. I might c/r turn with 22/TT/ATs/A8s sometimes but vs. an aggro reg capable of 3 barrel bluffing and betting worse 3 streets for value I'd definitely take this line.

I'd like to see a wider one pair value range from opp to want to do this.

I doubt you'd play worse than AT like this for value, and TT is a pretty easy 3-bet pre so you are basically just repping AT and 22 that decided not to lead or c/r flop.

Looks pretty sketchy dude.

Cmon obv c/c AT/22.

This hand is too funny still. Did you REALLY play this yourself zookman? Why would he think you are stationy? I didn't know you had such tendencies...

Nonetheless, i highly doubt he gets hero called here.

Why do you highly doubt it?

What is hero bluffing with Renton?

Lol at him getting hero called here. Sadly i agree with Danny i don't think his value range is wide enough. He'd have to be capable of folding T8s here (which is possible).

weak aces and tx of hearts i guess

but it doesn't take that many combos to balance with 22 and AT

I'd have to see a player actually do this before I'd ever put him on a bluff here.

I feel like I was the villain and this hand was played against me a couple days ago.


I remember looking at this river action and being like "wtf how can he have something here, I guess he slowplayed a set?" I had nothing though so it didn't matter, even though I would have folded all but my strongest of hands.
