Default Re: Please don\'t call my CR bluff! nl600

I don't like it because your hand has some showdown value. There are lots of hands he could have that you are beating, and he'll just fold all of those. There are a couple hands that you would have lost to that he might fold, but not that many -- I would have said only AQ, AT. But almost all the hands that are ahead of you will call. It is hard to put you on QT, so I don't see him folding any of the two-pair hands. And if you really had the AK, then you would have bet out, because you wouldn't be able to afford the chance of a check behind.

If you said that your bet was for value, because you had put him on a combination hand such as KQ or QdJd, then I would say that it isn't that horrible. But unless you really feel he would never float or bluff, I think that check and call turn and river will make more money in the long run.
