Rate 2 similiar bluffs

I trying to pick good spots to play back at villians where i just call. Ive alot to do to improve this part of my game, improving this aspect should make my marginal hands alot more profitable.


hand 1 - Vs reg tag, Ive done some floating already where he barrelled one, i bet turn and a 3rd where i delayed float.

Any thoughts appreciated. Especially on betsizing.

1 - This probably works a high %, you probably have to fire river big if he calls (maybe even an overbet shove?)

2 - I just fold flop, his UTG double barreling range is probably pretty strong, and I doubt he folds anything decent with a heart.

both are good in the sense that you can represent a wide range of value hands. in 1, a problem is that his turn double barrel range is not wide. As such, you should have a read that he can lay down a legitimate hand. in 2, a problem is that you have very poor equity when called. it would be better if you had a heart. a good thing about 2 is that he should be double barreling with a wider (weaker) range.

for once my thinking was exactly the same as yours
