It's not my bluff, but it's too nice not to be posted.
I was playing with three other grinders sweating me and we were talking about how there is no way our Queens full is ever good here. However SB leveled the bejesus out of us
No point jamming last hand, I doubt he b/f 2 pair+ that he decided to bet otr on this runout so call>jam imo.
I wouldn't be so sure he doesn't b/f top two or a set there. I think if we decide it's +EV to call, it will usually be more +EV to raise. Hero's hand looks a lot like overpair / 2p when we get to river and check and when we c/r it makes no sense for us to have anything but 78 unless we have blockers and a kamikaze instinct.

I think it's a good bluff vs anyone since we have very little sd value, have bet every street strong so far so straight or set is credible, so many draws missed and a passive player can also make some weak 2p or even strong 2p/set peels only to fold to big bet on river.
I'm bumping by an epic spew that turned an awesome session into ashes.
The table was infested by TAGs (all but LAG SB). I had only PF stats displayed - 22/16/1.7 (150 hs), 87% fold to steal for BTN - but failed to look up that his BTN 3bet was 9.1% and flop cbet was merely 40%, hence my flop grave mistake - not donking (I was obv c/valueshoving).
I vbet(/folded) the turn but an atrocious river came, still I thought his image was way too tight, WTSD/W$SD=29/70.
Do I take it right that a timing tell contributed to my fail - I tanked like 5 sec before shoving (my previous actions were only a bit faster)? I normally take the same time before shoving for value, but this opp could be unaware of it.
That wasn't the main factor ofc - it's more important that I wasn't repping the nuts, and BTN's range didn't contain 9-6 as he didn't shove the turn. I was too tired after 400 hands to think it over, alas there had been no clear signals for closing the session before this hand.
Was the river bluff stupid? I thought my weak two pairs were basically air on this board, and there were two-pair hands to be folded out. I struggle with gutshot boards, think that I play them way too weak-tight and thus seek move-making spots - which ones do you find appropriate?
At first I was value betting then I knew he had a flush so I had to bluff. Note to self don't bluff this donk. What I find intresting is if he had bottom set I would have won. Did I play this bad? How come it wasn't believable or is he just a POW.
