you can't be bluffing if no better hand ever folds which is most definitely the case here. just because a limited number of worse hands calls doesn't mean it's not for value.

and just because no better hand every folds doesn't make it NOT a bluff.

IE: you shoved on the river with air putting villain on small pocket pair.. He's a donk and called you. That'd be a bluff even though donk was never folding any part of his range that got there on the river, say, on a KKKAQ board.

[/ QUOTE ]

a small pair beats air on that board. you're hoping to fold out better.

you defined bluff as folding better hands, so I gave you an example that a bluff never folds a better hand.

no you didn't. you gave me an example of trying to bluff the wrong opponent. Surely the vast majority of people you face will fold the small pair there.

regardless of villain's action, hero is making a bluff.

I think the real question in this hand is the river. I called the turn, another 9 hit the river, and you shoved. I think this is a fairly easy c/f against not just me, but anybody with a brain really. What do you expect to get value from? I dunno, with my hand the turn was exactly a call, but I did put you squarely on JJ without much thought. I/anybody could have soo many boats though on that river, given my line. Like I think it's fair to say I could have every possibly boat combo on that river. A shove gets value from one hand (exactly my hand, like exactly) if the villain is dumb (but I ain't dumb yo).

How much did he bet on turn that would allow him to c/fold river? I just don't see what he could bet that would not commit him to river no matter what. To say river is an easy c/fold is kinda silly. c/call yes, but he can never fold river if he bets turn.
