Re: canterbury bluff spot
[ QUOTE ]
vehn, like i said, sometimes i 3-bet, sometimes i flatcall the 3-bet isnt the question, and 100 reasons why it wont work is worthless unless you elaborate
mitch, i agree that nobody folds a straight, but i think only one capable of having it with the check around on turn and river is CO, and i think its unlikely
as a whole it seems the consensus is that this play sucked, i thought it was good at the time and still think it is fairly strong considering the hand range... i did c/r and it folded to CO and he got pissed off and stood up as he curled the cards back to flick them into the muck, but in his frustration knocked some chips in and said fine if they are already in, i call and tabled TT

Ship it,
A straight-forward frustrated player's range will include 99 or a rivered flush and really nothing else. These type players tend to give up in spots like this, not bluff hopelessly. They understand that they are never bluffing 4 players out of a pot this size. I think you got real lucky that you didnt get called or raised in another spot, nevermind the range of the straight-forward player. My guess is that your read of this player is off, though this obviously based on the results. But given your description I hate a raise here.
