NL100 I find myself bluffing with JJ

[Fiasco]

Villain is 13.3/7.7/14 (thats right, his AF is higher than his VPIP) over 443 hands

Is this FPS? I had this sick feeling like, "what the hell am i doing here?" when I made the river bet, think I got kind of lost in this hand.

Since I have (some) showdown value should I just have called the turn and re-evaluated the river (basically call the turn and fold to any significant bet on the river)?

He probably pushed all in.

If you are going to bother bluffing, do it on the flop as it costs you only $15, where your bluff cost you $54.

[GiantBuddha]

I can't figure out what he puts $24 in on the turn with that he folds on the river for $30. They say a bluff should tell a story. This one doesn't, really. Or if it does, I just don't get it.

[AlexB182]

Agree to BigBiceps, plus your turn raise does not achieve anything and I guess you know it.

[CalledDownLight]

If you must bluff then this is this is what I'd do in order of effectiveness.

1. Bet the flop for like $15. If he calls then you can give up or fire the turn for $40.

2. Raising the turn to $45 is cheaper, stronger, and doesn't give him a free card, but you don't get that extra $12 out of him. (as opposed to your river bluff)

3. Bluff the river for $50. $30 seems way too weak to me.

[Fiasco]

I was trying to represent a big hand (thats what they all say) either AQ or QQ.

I thought the minraise would honestly work on the turn. For some reason I just felt completely sure that he was on KK.

FWIW, he folded the river.

you should be betting the flop to rep those imo
