    Default Decent bluff or speww 100nl

    Villain is winning 100nl player, not bad. He's been opening like every button so I am 3 betting here essentially as a bluff.

    I think he can call flop bet with FDs, overs and mid pairs and he'd prob raise overpairs. I think he can b/f the turn w most of his flop calling range so I decided to c/r ai.

    Thoughts?

    Are you sure this is a bluff?

    The most likely hands that are betting here are probably his floats/FD's (which you're ahead of) and his Jx which own you.

    I think he checks back the midpairs (that you are trying to fold out with this 'bluff') very often. Or at least most people would be checking back 77-TT here.

    Well yes, my hand is often the best hand so its not a bluff per se I guess.

    But I could make some middle pps fold and overs which is what I want. I can't c/c here and I thought c/rai and c/f were close. Against some maniacs it could be different.

    Maybe I am way off I don't know poker is pwning me right now.

    Umm... why are c/r allin and c/f your only two options here? I'm not saying this is the best option, but I don't see why betting again isn't an option here. I'd rather c/f than bet though I think.

    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    Are people at 100nl really capable of a pure float in a 3 bet pot?

    Your preflop size is way too small especially oop bvb. In general you have a lot less fold equity in 3 bet pots then you think. I would just play it as a bluff catcher. Since I don't know that he's calling 3 bets with a wide range I'd just c/f turn.
