Villain is reggish.. here is my thoughts, he calls in position with lots of hands since my cutoff range is around 28/24.. I believe he floats almost any flop and when I check the turn he thinks he can pick off the pot so he will bet the turn nearly 100% when I check it to him. I think he will call rivers with low pp's if I bet 1/2 pot or less as well as JT type hands.. So betting the river as a bluff obviously.. is this spewwy.. donky? Serious replies only not just dumb move donkey plz

I c/f fold turn. (no need to level your self into thinking he will try to bluff you with worse than your A-high. You might want to bluff him off his non-top pairs but you tried it on the flop and he called, you didn't improve on turn, just c/f)

as played c/f riv.

ps. oh and btw if you called the turn because you thought you had the odds for your 6 outs,....

Yeah.. I agree and do this 99% of the time.. I just thought this was a special occasion as I figured if villain had a decent hand he would raise my flop bet as past history shows.. He could hit a K there and it spell disaster if he's willing to hero call.. with KT type hands.. his 1/2 pot bet on the turn I think was to either induce me or to steal at that point... (was my thinking at the time anyway)

that's what I think too.. double barreling makes much more sense.. it was basically because of the villain as I thought double barreling would induce a bluff from him to raise.. as he likes to raise flops and turns sometimes... since we both play fairly standard i was more in a he thinks that i think mode.. yeah i know. pretty meh...

Check-folding the turn makes more sense. At these stakes, weak tight is profitable. Villain didn't call the flop with total air. He usually has a (pocket) pair at least.
Don't try fancy 3-barrel bluffs. They are spew.

BTN isn't even fully stacked so it's probably wrong to assume that he's going to float flops and raise turns etc as I highly doubt he's ever floating a flop with the intention of bluffing, if he thought you were stealing from CO he would just 3bet - you might be able to get him off draws and low-mid PPs with a double barrel but give up after that.
