Re: Inducing river bluffs
vs. aggressive opponent who isn't likely to call down with a mediocre made hand, if you have been betting a hand like TP on F & T, and they have been calling on a draw heavy board, and no draw gets there on the river, then they probably won't pay off another bet on the river if their draw missed and you bet out, but they might bet the river as a bluff if you check.
Preflop (Hero has A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img])
villian open raises from C/O; hero in SB 3-bets
Flop (K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img])
Hero bets, villain calls (or Hero bets, villain raises, Hero 3-bets, villain calls)
Turn (3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img])
Hero bets, villain calls
River (4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img])
vs passive calling station who maybe is calling down with KT or A8, value bet this.
vs someone you think is on a draw and unlikely just calling with a made hand and not going to call another bet, checking to induce a bluff is good
