I agree, bluffing tight players
can be good, especially when they start folding sets/two pairs. However, I'd like to know this to be the case before I start making plays like this as I think we can generally agree a very tight player and especially in this instance is going to have a very strong range. You are TRYING to get him to fold 2p+, which IMO is suicide. It appears he did this time so good on you.
Some relevant stats for plays like this are going to be difficult as this hand plays quite differently than most other hands due to being multiway and having donked so I like to keep things simple, stupid, and just fold vs. the stronger range, but for other more regular SRP situations you'll want to know his fold to cbet for flop/turn/river, fold to river raises, and any other fold stats in the game tree as usually if someone is over folding "slightly" somewhere they are over folding slightly elsewhere also.
It's also important to note that in instances like this, while although you block the nuts (KQ) your opponent never has KQ, so your blockers are only relevant at the very least from a randomizing standpoint as a human, and if you did bluff all QQ then obv. already over bluffing. If you pay attention to this microstakes forum you will see a lot of bad blocker bluffs that have no relevance.
