    don't think this is very good, he's not folding better for half pot

    Question:
    If we did have a boat it would be a good spot to bet halfpot on the turn right? We aren't really protecting from much and if villan has an overpair with a diamond or is peeling very light with Ad we'd want him to call turn and allow him to catch the flush or give him a chance to bluff.

    Sorry to go off track.

    So what do you guys suggest?

    Just dont bluff on monotone flops in general?
    bluff the flop is fine but give up on turn?
    bet the turn larger?

    SB ($320.15)
    Hero (BB) ($100)
    UTG ($194.40)
    MP ($100)
    CO ($106.90)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with ,
    1 fold, MP bets $3.50, 1 fold, Button calls $3.50, 1 fold, Hero calls $2.50

    Flop: ($11) , , (3 players)
    Hero checks, MP bets $8, 1 fold, Hero raises $22, MP calls $14

    Turn: ($55) (2 players)
    Hero bets $22, MP calls $22

    River: ($99) (2 players)
    Hero bets $52.50 (All-In), MP calls $52.50 (All-In)

    Total pot: $204

    Results:

    Sure yeah, especially with those stacks. It's just alot harder to bluff when stacks only allow u to bet 2/5 pot on turn and half pot on river.

    Rugby- bluffing monotone flops is good because they won't be able to continue very often. Even if they have an overpair here w/out a diamond their equity is trash vs your c/r range and many turns r ugly.
