Stars $1k bluff, kind of spewy but against a nit, thoughts?
 

Villian in hand is Jovial Gent. My image is relatively tight, as is his. He tanked about 10 seconds then checked the turn.

I don't find JG to be a nit in general, and I would rather bet the turn than bet check bet, you get more credit that way imo. Here you certainly fold out better hands a decent % of the time, but I feel like people always look me up in this spot so I've kinda stopped doin it u kno

i don't know if i would bluff, but i think if its better than checking, then a turn bet has to be even better.

I think you'll get a call out of people inclined to call, a fold out of people inclined to fold. Your line could be anything -- overpair, boat, 2 overcards. You slowed down when you got called on a paired board, then sped up when the third 5 came, making a 5 in Villain's hand much less likely.

Go Tribe.

meh after he tanks turn i think theres a good chance you get looked up. But Hes a v good and can fold 99 here, unlike most randoms. so basically im on the fence.
