I prefer raising Pre. Check/calling flop, check calling turn. Raising turn is effectively turning a hand that still has great equity into a bluff. Just call and let you hand realise that equity

I like pre and wp turn&river. Would probably go c/c mode myself on the flop as we got no nut draws there, but leading is fine too.

I am not anywhere good enough to make that hero call, like the line by op quite a bit, don't think I do it much myself though.

After calling the turn raise, I don't this player is looking to make folds on blankish rivers? Betting 144 not much different betting 180. Don't think he ever planned on folding here

I think this is a preety good play overall,so much prefer it than C/Calling at any point since villain hates his life and is forced into bluffcatching.

The only objection id have is if villain is a drooler we might give up riv since obviously everything missed,we got all the draws so villain has a made hand most of the time,which he prolly isnt folding.
But this aint that bad cause if he is after all,a drooler,balance doesnt matter against him so even if we c/f every time we miss,he ll still prolly pay us every time we hit and bet.

In a vacuum, this seems like a bluff that would work vs a lot of players. (Me for one)

So what was going on outside the vacuum? It seems to me that there are two basic possibilities:

-You bluffed a player who can't fold decent hands.
OR
-Your opponent was able to correctly read that you were likely to be bluffing.

The former can only be fixed by getting a better read on someone, the latter might be a problem of table image. Are you bluffing too much maybe? If people view you as the table maniac, they will call you down lighter than they would anyone else.

Just putting the thoughts out there, FWIW.
