Default Bluffing 22

100NL 6max. Villain is unknown. I'm in CO with 2c2s. Folded to me, I raise to $4. BB calls. Pot=$8.50

Flop --- 7s Qs 9s --- BB checks, I bet $8, BB raises to $16. I call. Pot=$40.50

Turn --- 4h --- BB bets $12.50, I call. Pot=$65.50

River --- Qh --- BB checks, I push.

Thoughts?

When someone raises, then bets less than they raised on the turn, what do you think they have? Any history here?

Are you repping a Q or 77/99? I can't see him laying down any Q, and flush.

effective stacks? seems like spew initially.

I think most of villain's range is QX, flush, and AsXx. That said, you probably aren't folding out a queen or a flush, and your 22 may be good against an As that missed. I don't like betting here without some sort of excellent read.

Stacks please. This looks ugly however. Why bet the flop? Why call the raise?

When someone does that, I think they have a v. weak hand, or are on a draw. I'm repping a Q on the river, since it seems obvious he doesn't have one.

wtf, fold the flop dude.

you have no idea what he has and thus you have no idea what cards are good to bluff with and what cards aren't.

btw theres no need to bet the river if your read on his holdings is correct but obviously you have no idea what he has.

Why not bet the flop? I raised PF and don't have any real reason not to cbet here the way I do most of the time.

Calling the minraise is debatable, but I do have a bit of a hand. Also, I'm loathe to roll over to minraises on the flop, as they so often are exactly what they look like.

If you are repping the Q, why aren't you raising the turn?

You have exactly zero folding equity here.

Naughty, naughty.
