Default Almost a c/r bluff.... so I\'ll post it 3/6

3 handed, I've been playing fairly solid thanks to hitting some hands. I've been c/r with the goods. I'm sitting with a decentish reg, but he's probably got a few leaks preflop I'd say. There's also a fish at the table, and we seem to be taking turns having a bite.

Onto the hand, I pick up J9s in the BB. Button (tag) raises to 24, I re-raise to 72, he calls.

Flop is a T83 with 2 diamonds (I have none). I think about leading, but decide instead to c/r, because he for has been known to peel with stuff a bit light (99 for example), but the c/r would blow him out of it. He checks too.

The turn is a 6, not a diamond. I check again, he bets half the pot, I very quickly push. Keep in mind, I have respect.

Yeah or meh?

I prefer bet/calling the flop.

Checking twice looks too weird.

Umm, if I bet, and he pushes, doesnt the laws of math compel me to fold?

If you 3/4 pot the flop, I'm pretty sure you'll have odds to call a push, although it sucks.

I just don't see you playing a set or an overpair like this often. If you actually had the hand you were representing, then I would like it since you'll be looked up very light any time you do something out of the ordinary.

Ok, people always talk about representing, but lets look at it another way:

He's representing a weak hand, and I'm representing something stronger than that. I'm not looking to fold top pair here.

What's wrong with a flop lead if he's pealing light? I'd just fire 2 barrels or bet flop or check-raise turn. I never check-raise flop after PFR, but I think I'm going to start.

This is a sweet line and I think it'll work really often since your hand looks super strong.
