Default Re: Representing a set or trips

Don't try to bluff an overpair on an 885 board. That is the best possible flop for QQ+ that is not a set.

The fact that you called a bet and a raise preflop means that you should not have A8s so the only hands they are afraid of are 55/88 and there are a grand total of 4 combinations of those hands. You also could be overplaying 99/TT/JJ of which there are 18 combinations.

Your bluff here was very poorly timed. Against a bet and a raise preflop if you are playing 44 it should be solely for set value (or for when the flop comes 235)
