Habitually i play really str8forward in the early stages preflop and it's really rare that i found a good spot to bluff at this early levels. But here, the guy who flat (thebattler33) is the bad player of the table who plays a loose-passif style … cause we're deep, I decided to join the party too.

Pre Flop: (t120) brody_booy is CO with Q of hearts J of hearts
Nanu881 raises to t200, thebattler33 calls t200, 3 folds, brody_booy calls t200, 3 folds

Flop: (t720) 7 of diamonds T of clubs 8 of spades (3 players)
Nanu881 checks, thebattler33 bets t404.00, brody_booy calls t404, Nanu881 folds

here I decided to call cause, i think i can stack him off if I hit my str8 and my overcards can be good too

Turn: (t1528) A of hearts (2 players)
thebattler33 checks, brody_booy bets t875.00, thebattler33 calls t875

– I bet the turn here cause I hit a double gutshot and he showed some weaknes. He quickly call my bet ( so i put him on either a str8draw or a hand who is affraid of the A)

River: (t3278) 7 of hearts (2 players)
thebattler33 checks, brody_booy bets ???

 

so even if the guy is a fish, is it a good spot to bluff ?

tough spot.  i like the way you played flop and turn…i think he folds turn alot but now we are in a jam.  I think this is one of those spots where you have to go with your gut.

 

If you are putting him on a draw this seems like a pretty good spot to bluff the river.

 

Interested to see what the pros have to say!

hehe, I wish I was a fish
 

As far as bluffing I think a better spot would be to make your turn bet bigger when the ace comes off looking to get the fold there. After he calls the turn I don't believe he only has a draw, he must have caught a piece of that board. How big of a bet do you think gets him to fold?

I think you'll get looked up here a lot. You're repping pretty thin. Ace X isn't floating here that often and it's like your repping an Ace…

when he checks/call the turn and checks the river on this board, I think he never has better then one pair 95% of the time. So I dont think we need to overbet the pot at the river to make him fold a really good hand. A bet of 60/75% of the pot is ,in my opinion, a good bet…
