Bluff catcher - unnecessary or standard?
Hey folks,
9000 hands into 10NL and showing an ok win rate. Every man and his dog seems to 3bet in late position and from the blinds.
In this hand i turn kk into a bluff catcher. Was this ok or fancy-play-syndrome bs?
MP2 (14/11 over 114) opens and BB's call of my 3bet prices in alot of hands that MP2 may have folded to the 3bet so i think his calling range is basically the same as his opening range (88+, ATs+, ATo+, KJs+, KJo+). His check/call on the flop seems pretty standard with all his pp, 888 and Jx, maybe his big Aces? On the turn i thought the turn cbet would basically narrow his range to JJ+ 888 and his Jx, which i have less than 50% equity against, so i checked to induce a river bet to catch his smaller pp and his bluffs. Should i have b/f turn and c/f river or is my line ok? If my line is ok i feel committed to call any bet if the river bricks because that is what i have set up for. Is there a sizing from the villain that i fold to after checking the turn? Even up to a psb his range can be polarised.
My gut instinct was villain shows QQ.
