Default NL50 river bluff

Villain is a 15/10/1 TAG. I have a very tight image.
I'm not really sure what I'm trying to represent here, but his line seemed really weak to me.
Do you like it ?

I'm not sure what you are representing...QJ maybe? I definately think that QJ is ahead of his range. I see him with AJ. I would prefer raising his turn bet instead of the river. If you had a hand &gt;QJ you would have had to make a play before the river because of the draws.


Its going to be tough for him to call with &lt;2pair.

I actually like your line here, I mean his turn and river bets are really weak and against a player like this I like trying to push him out of this type of board where he could easily have a weak J. Did you notice him hesitating on any of these bets?

How often does this guy see the river? Your line is very strong, unless he calls way too much on the river I really like this play, his bets seem super weak.

I like a turn raise much better, as it's most likely a scary card for him and could very well have helped your hand. That combined w/his weak lead makes be raise here almost always.

Pretty much the only hands villain holds that you won't get rid of is 55 and 66. Given the action I do have those in his range, but I think AJ is a much bigger part of it.

really looks like AJ here. he called a raise OOP and c/r the flop. turn/river bets are srsly small. Good bluff.

oh, raise turn.

I like that since Pokey told us we're weak-tight, everyone starts going "Good bluff!"

His line does seem weak but I don't think I would ever bluff a 15/10/1 who has bet 3 streets. His weakness could easily be "ZOMG I have 3 Js ... please don't fold". Having said that, Qh on the River - bluff away. He's tight so he can probably fold a hand but assuming he has something he probably needs a good reason to do it.

What a strange line from villain. Had you seen him do anything comparable before?

It looks very blocker-ish, and given your description of the situation I don't see any reason to imagine that he could be trying to induce a raise. On the river, yes you aren't representing that much but that doesn't make it easy to look you up.

Agree with Milky that a turn raise would be better in some ways but then he's giving you such good odds to draw...
