Don't see how this preflop play can be profitable unless you have a very tight image/opponents are folding too much pre flop.

I think bet on turn is more likely to get a fold than river bet. Would you check with AQ or better on turn? If not, I think you should pot turn and then shut down if called.

I would have bet half the pot on flop, and much more on turn. If he calls or raises turn then I am not going to win this bluff often enough to warrant the final shot.

The turn was the time to bluff. Not the river.

This line would only make sense if you have the image of a real passive nit, never using A as bluffcard on turn and too scared of a checkraise/bloating the pot when he DOES have the A on turn, and even then those guys still don't make a fullpot bet on river.

Since I assume this doesn't really fit you, bet the turn instead [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Villain looked a lot like QQ here. I don't think TT calls the flop bet. And I think AK/AJ bet out on the turn and definitely don't CC turn then check river. I got lucky this time anyway. Counted down and folded.

Everyone saying to bet the turn - you would bet the turn when you actually held an ace? You wouldn't check behind to snap off a bluff/value bet? Because if you actually hold an ace, betting the turn is pretty bad - so OP's line makes sense.

Not that I'm saying you won't get looked up by KQ, but I think it's a decent bluff in most cases.

I'm betting the turn if I hold an ace. I'm not letting a free one slide on AKJx board. If called I can check behind when the river blanks and I only have one pair
