Thinking back, I could have shut down on the turn, but there was quite a bit of money in this pot and I figured that if he had AK he would fold to a turn bet. Maybe it was a bad spot for a bluff, but I put him on AK all the way and I stuck with my read. He just got very lucky. But, then again, I probably should have gave up on the hand becasue of exactly what happened. People at these limits can't lay down a hand when they are supposed to. |

If you're committed to trying this bluff I'd push the turn. You don't have enough money left over to credibly bet the turn and river.

Re: stupid micro donks or unnecessary bluff?
1. Don't bluff calling stations.
2. The river shove is so bad. After he calls the turn, he's not folding anything here for 1/3 the pot on that card. 3. Please use a hand converter like the one at www.flopturnriver.com. 4. Don't bluff calling stations. Ever. 5. Pretty much don't bluff at 25NL at all (except when c-betting). |

Re: stupid micro donks or unnecessary bluff?
yah I thought about shoving the turn right after the hand was done. and yes, the river bet was desperation, but I figured it was my only chance at winning the hand. do you think betting the turn was a mistake all together?

Re: stupid micro donks or unnecessary bluff?
Once he calls the big flop raise, I'd be wary of firing again. That kind of call looks like tentative commitment.
