seemed a thinking player, and he thought v long before calling turn.i figured his range would be quite weak. im a real noob with this game, and so far im a bit overaggro, because i want to see how players generally react to that. how light they call down etc etc. it speeds up the learning process.

If I barrel the turn I usually make it a bit smaller cause it seems to have about the same folding equity, I also balance my range by valuebetting small when my top2 turns a full. Now I don't like a river bluff, because most of the time villains fold their draws to a turn bet when the board pairs, so his range is weighed more towards made hands.

bad spot for a river bluff. I think he made his hand on the turn... maybe he's trying to get to a showdown and see what you are betting with.

How long were you at the table? any stats or additional info?

I think you shouldn't really raise that marginal hand out of the blinds. It looks pretty but isn't really that great. I don't think a river bluff is totally spew- against looser opponents I occasionally make a river bet in the region of half the pot. If he has a made hand he is obviously raising or calling but if he has nothing and may be beating you with a jack he folds or he folds when he may have bet you off your pair with a missed NFD. I swear some opponents will out think themselves too if they think a long time on the turn and you make a small bet on the river they can out-level themselves and fold.
