This is a luxury we can afford only in position if you ask me.

Then if you do bet... Let me ask you: Which hands do you wish to fold out?

I want to keep initiative because if I check and he bluffs his 66-JJ range I have to fold.

I know I beat most of his PP that floated the flop but in the best case scenario he checks it down if I check the T.

I know. This is the luxury of being in position. No one can consistently beat position. I'd beat Phil Ivey if I got to play him HU in position every hand. So would you.

That's the problem of bluffing with this hand. Isn't it a bit bizarre to bluff hoping that worse hands should fold? On this board you should have a host of small suited connectors (in :diamond: and :spade: ) to bluff with.
