I'd raised to $12. It looks like a good bluffing card and he can talk himself into calling with a K a lot of the time I think.

I would raise to 12/13 or so. Call if he shoves.

I agree. If he's got QJ or J8, he just hit, nothing you can do.

In the hand i shoved. I was thinking it would look more like a bluff than the raise to 12.

in retrospect i don't think many people will call that size of a bet on this board with most of the hands i gain value from.

So does anyone see any value in shoving, or should do the normal 3x bet amount
