Is this a good bluff?
 

Villain is like 26/16/2.5 over a couple hundred data-mined hands. Saw him 3-barrel no pair no draw on a dry board earlier.

i really think you should fold or 3bet preflop. i also think that you should c/r turn after c/ring flop.

Agree 100%

also lol at the c/mr, its not necessarily bad but it is funny and probably suboptimal if it resigns you to doing this with your big hands.

I don't know why I have so much trouble folding these 'pretty' hands OOP preflop. I know I'm supposed, but it's easily the least disciplined aspect of my game.

So many people min-CR my cbets, I thought I'd try it out. Seems like a really cheap way to bluff, and based on my typical response to them, very effective.

Yea I didn't even notice that when i first looked....I HATE the minraise, make a heterosexual sized raise on the flop.

Re: Is this a good bluff?
 

I don't mind the cmr. You'll slow him down a lot and possibly folds out better hands like mid pairs

Re: Is this a good bluff?
 

just rr preflop if you want to play it. i rr here a lot.

But why though?

I mean, it feels to me like he folds all his non-ace hands, regardless of whether I 2x, 3x or 4x his bet, and I don't imagine there's many Ax hands he calls 2x but folds to 4x with.

I don't hate calling here but you have to be willing to bluff a lot of flops.
