Default Re: Unsuccesful bluff!

Raise the donk bet on the flop to like 1400 or so. He's betting for information and to block to get a cheap showdown. You will see this a lot in tournaments at that level. Tell him what he wants to hear - that his hand is no good and he can make a good fold on the basis of his cunning bet to see where he stands.

In general, I like this advice against this kind of donkbet.

Here, you often have 10 outs or are ahead, so I like just calling.

The problem with a pot sized river bluff is you have to get villain to fold half the time for it to be profitable.
