Re: A few hilo hands
One thought about hand 1: should I consider betting the river as a bluff? When I raised sixth I thought he might have just Jacks and at best he has Jacks and 3s or Jacks and 4s. So either I'm in the lead or have many outs and can value bet the river if I improve.
But, since I raised 5th AND 6th with a fairly dry board, he may think the only hand I could possibly have is three kings, in which case he could lay down Jacks up. Is it worth throwing in one bet on the river in case he (a) either had Jacks up on 6th or made it on the river and (b) decides to make that fold since he surely thinks my raises during the hand were for value.
The only way he can really convince himself to call is putting me exactly on a big pocket pair (e.g., AA) that raised 6th because JD might have only Jacks and then made some sort of razor-thin-value/strange-pseudo-bluff bet on the river with just one big pair.
