Re: 100PLO: Blocker Semi-bluff
 

the problem here is SB has lead into a field on a draw heavy board, after a draw has hit so he obviosuly has something - and JT cant be discounted. the second problem is you arnt really deep enough to put any real pressue on him on the river

SB butchered this hand - he should have lead flop and C/r turn - he knows hes played it badly and so he chases his boat when he dosent really have the implied odds to do so

for this type of play i prefer 1-2 opponents, and a less coordinated board, but even in your spot this will work a good % of the time
