    I accidently raised pre flop, didn't see that he had already raised because I wasn't paying attention. This guy had lost 20$ to me at this table and he had tried to bluff me on the river 2/3 times i'd gotten to the river with him. I put out these 2 raises because I was a bit on tilt that I wasn't paying attention and I wanted to make something out of the hand....

    Is there anything of value here? If i'm going to try and do this, did I do it right or horribly wrong?

    preflop sucks, flops is okay, turn is good, river is good, I like the river bluff because he seems to have something like AK which would have to fold.

    Fold preflop. Not even close, unless he has been raising 10xBB frequently with crap. And bluffing a tilter that's out to get you is VERY -EV. Don't do it.

    He is raising with crap frequently, he raised the river twice vs me without even a high card, he is playing everything.

    With that said, I still don't think it was a good idea on my part... but he did fold, and i'm just lucky it worked.

    This is a fold preflop... but since you asked about the bluff...

    Looks like a bluff. But I think you could have taken this pot if you bet on the turn, as this would have looked like a high pocket pair because of your accidental re-raise pre-flop. Usually a c-bet on the flop that's called then checked on the turn looks like a miss on the flop. To win the pot, the only way is to bet the river - which is what you did. But aware opponents should be able to sniff this out easily if beating ace high.

    Yeah, a turn bet would have been more effective.
