I played with villain in lower stakes few times, however i dont really have any strong reads.
he should know that my main games are 2-4- 5-10, and assumes that im taking a shot so maybe it should get more credit
how about my sizing, maybe shove is better?
I think villain has small flush here always, he is never raising worst, and not bluffing much.
I assume he would bet bigger flush draws on flop

Wouldn't flush draws continuation bet that flop?

I don't think you are bluffing here, I think you are getting value from QJ, QT often

I'll NEVER understand the logic behind these kind of moves. Let me say though, I'm only a small stakes player just browsing the high stakes posts, I've never played higher than 1/2.

What's the point of turning anything into a bluff, besides K-high or worse? Even ace high often has plenty of showdown value against missed draws. You've got plenty of showdown value on this river. He could have a worse queen, he could be bluff raising himself w/ J10 or 78.

once you start to understand the logic, you can play higher than 1-2

Yah not a fan. All the small flush draws are combos draws on the flop so I think you are good often enough to call here. Would rather turn like AJ or something into a bluff here.

he has AQ and he's probably not folding it. what is this.

not sure its a great idea to try to fold out a FLUSH if you think he has that often. Also think shove is better than this if you wanna bluff

he has Q2/Q5 a lot(is he opening the offsuit versions?), will hero call AQ/the rare flush some and is likely bluffing some. Do not like.

I think I'm into this, provided that donking isn't a predominant part of your strategy in these spots on the flop. If he can eliminate a lot of sets and flush draws from your range, I think it's pretty close to a fold as this is at least KQ for value and an ambitious spot to try to get folds from Qx (ie- as you said, super unlikely to be a bluff). Seems like he wants a call at least so question is just how often he will fold. To that effect, I think you would do better to make at least a somewhat larger raise like 12+

I just don't think people will raise/fold flushes and better hands to b/3b on rivers to good opponents anymore. If he has better and played it as such I just don't see him folding it to you. MAAYYYBBEEE if you have a read about his showdown decision making or something

what is the range that you beat that checks back the flop and can call this river, given that you have a queen here?

Don't like it, also think I'd rather bet it all if I'm gonna make the play

i like it if you are deeper, jamming like at least 1600$+

shut up

just cos you make a fancy play that isnt normal doesnt make it right or amazing and it doesnt make you cool

starting this thread trying to show off your fancy play

Personally I find this horrible. A majority of your FE comes from him folding a worse hand. Since when do people not cbet flush draws?

balance.

i ddint start this cause im cool, I started it because i got snapped by 65dd

It is pretty bad. Repin' slow played set or air. Very unlikely villain is raising for thin value /w Qx. You can only make this play after villain thinks hero is incapable of bluffing in this spot. It's also bad because even random high stakes players have a hard time folding 2 pocket diamonds here.

yeah, i mean when people play fancy way their draws like this and they hit, they are way more unlikely to fold it.

I like your river line but I'd jam for sure

this

If you think he has weak flushdraws he can have 87 too among other things. And I don't see why he cannot have QT/QJ on the river.

Overall I think a call is better as he would cbet most flush draws and sets and quite a few of AQ-s.

this could potentially be a valuebet if villain is 43forty

If you're going to bluff, shove river.

FWIW I like the bluff as villain never has a boat and is faced with a sick spot with whatever flush he has.
