I hate my river play even though I don't like your river bet. I say I don't like it because I won't bluff raise here nearly often enough for you to want to induce it. I don't expect you to ever be bluffing on the river, so I would never check call a made hand instead of betting. So, I'm (pretty much always) just check folding worse hands or check raising better hands, mixed in with a check raise bluff maybe like 1/20 times (which should be 0/20 times)

I checked because I was going to check fold. While he waited to bet, I changed my mind and basically was ready to click raise as soon as he bet. If my raise would end up being delayed after his bet, I would have just folded. So maybe he owned me by waiting a little to bet. I don't think he had an easy time calling because he tanked for like 10 seconds.

7 seconds kicking myself, 2.9 seconds thinking about a couple of recent posts and 0.1 seconds thinking that my play seems so horrible (even to me) that maybe you wouldn't expect me to bet and so wouldn't go for a value check-raise so it must be a bluff.

[/ QUOTE ]I'm pretty sure I do know Miles won't pay off enough, so (now) I think I should check.
