Default Re: Big bluff vs. TWP

Let me preface this with "I suck", but why would you bluff here? (explain it too me)

This part of the line makes the SB look pretty strong. He check/calls the flop...

Flop: ($63) Q, 2, Q (3 players)
SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $36, SB calls $36, BB folds.

The leads the turn and smooth calls your raise. What is he doing this with? If he had a draw he isn't calling. He has a hand. What are you going to be able to move him off for ~$400 call into a $1100 pot?

Turn: ($135) 5 (2 players)
SB bets $87, Hero raises to $287, SB calls $200.

When the SB leads and smooth calls with very little behind, I think it's time to slow down a bit.

he would play a Q just like this. But there are only two queens and many other non-queen cards.

I like your play but the call by him on the raised turn is a cause for concern. I call with any Q here and given preflop and flop play you may be a dead duck (22, 55, 10,10) unlikely to have higher pair as per play but 22 or 55 or AQo is highly likely
