60value/40bluff

i think. I would like it to be that way that is, but i dont know.

it also depends alot on who i am playing. Against a tagfish it would probably be close to 100% bluff.

against a donk it would be 100% value.

Against some sicko who eats me alive and read my soul it would prolly be 50/50.

50/50 but I check-raise the river so rarely, I wonder if this is a leak of mine.

I'm probably like 90% value, so I voted 100% because that was closest. I think having 100% in the options was kinda dumb though. Nothing in poker is 100%.

shouldve gone with 75%, 100% option is for people who NEVER checkraise a river as a bluff.

will go into my thoughts on this after some more responses

in what situation would you want to c/r a river for either. what are good conditions (sample hands maybe?) for both. i play micro but i rarely find my self in situations where villains will fold to my value bet but v-bet/bluff worse hands and call a raise. i think in most OOP river spots, bet sizing is the key to me getting a stack. stuff like over/underbetting to get sick calls or bluff raises.

this sounds good ddubios, but it kinda misses the point of hand reading and value betting vs a range. except for the last 2, those are good.
