weeeeeeee - big bluffs today

[benny999]

1- villain so far is 27/20 (70 hands), and might see me as kinda aggro pre but weak-passive and straightforward post flop since i checked flops vs him 2x as the pfr and folded when he bet.

2- villain plays 23/17 after 300 hands, but spewy aggro against me preflop. pretty sure i've only shown good hands in big pots post flop.
also he calls my cbets with any made hand (like 66 on an A73 flop). normally i c/f the flop but for some reason i really wanted to win this pot!

3- same villain as the 2nd hand but earlier in the session. my image is solid - don't think i've 3 barreled him ever, maybe not even 2 barrels.

Hand 1). His bet suggests he is going for thin value - it looks like your shove will probably work but i probably would have just called.

Hand 2). Looks good

Hand 3). Looks good. Probably bet a little smaller on the river (~$170).

[Numbr2intheWorld]

Hand 1: it's probably a good play since you can easily have two pair Aces up here and like Vi says it looks like he's going for thin value. I wouldn't shove the river though, i like 200 to go or something around that.

Hand 2: You raised UTG, does the villain ever give you credit for a 3 or 6 here? Doubtful. I hate it, there's no reason to think that villain doesn't have a strong hand and there's no reason for him to think that you have one.

Hand 3: The first thing i think about in this hand is ISF theorem and it makes me want to say nh. Sadly, i just don't think you should try to get someone off a AJ, AT, or a bad two pair here because i find that even the regs still can't seem to fold anything substantial. I tried to yesterday against a similar guy in almost an identical situation and he still called me with AJ.

1. Seems like a decent spot to bluff. No need to shove though.

2. I think villain has 77-TT very often here and you can rep AA/KK. Marginal but not horrible.

3. Three barrel bluffs are usually very unprofitable. Sounds like you got away with this one though (if your image is still solid in hand 2). I would have preferred to c/r turn instead.

i hate the 2nd one

the third one i would just shove riv

[benny999]

thx for replies and the points on bet sizing, ive got to think about that more often...
except why bet $300 into $200 on the 3rd one?
