100/200 turn and river bluff raises

[The Funky Llama]

Villain is "TraviE"...he is 45/25/1.6.

He's not folding a better hand on the turn but I figure he has a lot of straight draws that will fold to a river bet.

I don't mind your turn raise but I don't think your river raise works enough of the time (given his stats...maybe you have a better read).

100/200? Nice work, FL. When the pot's still small like this I sometimes like to play cheap hit and miss mode and three-bet and check rather than try and trump the drawing portion of his range. As played I think the turn raise is fine, and the river's interesting. I obviously can't lecture you on 100/200 dynamics, but I have basically never (not once per 10k hands never, like never never) see people do the "donk on the end to test for a draw" outside of a HU match, and even then it's really rare. It's just too likely that he's value-donking a T, imo.

I like it against specifically this guy. Posts like this are tough for anyone to judge because of individual reads and the fact that its a 3 handed 100/200 game means recent history will be very relevant and we don't have that.

I'm kind of on the fence about this one. He seems like the type of player who would donk the river to fold out draws, but he also might bet something like 88 to get value from a freeSD? I think he doesn't have a T often since he'd c/r in most times, unless you think otherwise.

Why are you going out of your way to give this guy $600?

If there were such a thing as a pair of ones in poker, this player, if he had them here, would call you here with them. So what's the point.

Putting 2 bets at the end to fold out Q-hi or J-hi seems excessively ridiculous to me. But, maybe we're trying to project a certain image here, in which case there's no criticizing that.

I dont think its that bad. Since its 3-handed you will also be able to extract some if he calls you.

For those of us following along, can you mention in your replies whether or not you play in this game and whether or not you know this player? Thanks.
