He started spewing and now has tightened up. This is the first check raise hes done. What's my play?

My thinking was that he probably was on a draw.

$600 looks good, I think he shoves a lot of his draws over your 3 bet.

This sounds good. If this is the first time he's cr'd, then he probably likes his hand. Plus there's an awful lot of cards you don't want to see hit the turn when you guys are deep. Just bump it up now.

[Jeffmet3]

thanks, that was my thinking so i raised to $600 and he folded.

just wanted to make sure my line was good.

also, am I bluffing or going for value here, I wasn't sure?

Definately for value

[FionnMac]

umm you're going for value. what was your motivation for c/r, surely you must know this?

i'd always lead the river, he usually has a hand that wants to see a cheap showdown like KQ/KJ that isn't going to bet the river, so you lose value vs those hands by checking.

[Jeffmet3]

ok thanks.

I thought this was close but good. He called, but still.

To expand, yea he's getting good odds, but this is a bluff never, so how can he call? But, once again I guess I overestimated him, as there's no chance he was thinking that. [censored] me.

Meh, I don't like it really since the river doesn't change anything, so I wouldn't be expecting him to fold. Surely he must know you're very capable of floating this flop.

[Jeffmet3]

I guess it's player dependent, but if you're the villain in the hand, doesn't my hand look like a monster, and at worst something like J10s?

Calling the 3-bet and then flat calling the turn. I just committed almost 30% of effective stacks with calling. Then when checked to I bet turn and shove river. Yes, I'm shoving a half pot bet, but that can't be a bluff.

I don't really know what line can possibly look stronger than that.

Although I'm open to being wrong, I'm just curious if you can explain it, thanks.
