Hi!

I guess I would b/f. He may still call us with 6x and after a raise its a safe fold since our hand is quite close to the bottom of our range.QT there also ya.

Dont like c/f, he can easily turn some Qhigh/Khigh into a bluff
b/c is clearly overplay

c/c seems like another option but then we never rly c/f here since I assume we are betting with Q9,QT...doesnt seems a rly good way to balance

So I think 8x+ should be b/c and lower should be b/f.

I would check this hand on the River and probably check/call first against an unknown who might turn - as dawnfall mentioned - turn some hand into a bluff like AQ AK AT KQ or hands like that but i'd suggest that there are more better hands he might checkbehind with as worse hands he's gonna be calling off with. You could be checking some 2pair hands or Jx and he won'T have and call off 6x that many times that its worth to put in another bet. With some kind of a read i'd easily c/f this hand to be honest. Since the hands he could be bluffing with should have already folded on the turn but with no read and in a heads-up-situation it's probably to weak to c/f. i'd check and see what happens.

i discussed that hand with boomer and he said that betting as a bluff is fine and he's more familiar with the math and all that stuff that we should rely on him :)

Sowwy _love:

We just went through this hand on the podcast and the result of the analysis had us both going "Ummm....ok. That wasn't expected"

It's actually interesting as to whether we adjust our raising ranges on the flop somewhat in order to stop us having this "reverse capped" range, or whether it's still worth bluffing here
