I'm pretty sure we should be going for thin value on the river? once both opponents checked turn i discount Qx or stronger hands like sets.
I must say though my check on the river ain't good imo , if i'm going to check on the river my plans should probably be to c/f , most marginal hands would check back river. I just don't think there would be a high frequency of blufffs in there range because if v wanted to bluff they would have done on the turn. Ingame though i probably would have c/c , which again i just think its a mistake.

haha okay 🙂
focault , let's say we get to the river with a hand like A2/44/55 , although these hands do have a fair bit of showndown value , would u consider turning these into a bluff? we've pretty much capped their range, neither don't have better then Tx, bluff target would be to get anything lower then a Q to fold?
I dont think villain folds Tx on the river the way this hand has played out. I also dont think they will fold alot of medium PPs (which is why you are considering a thin value bet here) so it wouldnt make sense to turn our low PPs into a bluff. I'd take the showdown value.

I don't think I can say with confidence whether or not a random opponent will fold Tx to a river bet. That makes me want to bluff some but not too much. The hands I'd choose for bluffing would be those with minimal showdown value. Seems like you could have a lot of busted draws, and considering that you also don't have too wide of a value range (many of your best hands should bet turn), that's probably enough. If your opponent doesn't fold Tx, then bluffing will be significantly worse than checking when you have a hand with some SDV.

I guess a better candidate to bluff on the river would be a hand like J 9 we don't have hardly any SDV we're going to only need to succeed 25% of the time for a small bet to be profitable. So if we were going to go for a small bet here it's pretty much going to be a modest bluff , the thing is though, with a modest bluff we are trying to get folds from very weak hands so does this make us wanna go for an ambitous bluff on the river instead , so pretty much bet big to try get folds from Tx and lower pp? i find it kinda lame though because if were going to go for ambitious bluff our line should be probably c/r flop bet turn bet river to get those folds , and i think a river card like a non club is good for this , espically if it was heads up , since its a multi way i'm not sure if c/r flop bet turn and river line is great anyhow , I must say though it doe seem like a pretty strong line here , as most players play more straight forward multi way , i guess it's probably just higher varience if we were going to take that line.
going back to what i was asking can we basically still make a modest bluff on the river even if we think their range consist of marginal hands like Tx and pp?
I actually remember in your bluffing series (part 2) you showed that even if it’s considered a number 2 or 1 spot you still can still bet your air even if its unlikely your going to get a fold but there would be no sense in betting SDV if you think you wont get called by worse.

If you're confident V will fold Tx, then you've got a very good bluffing spot (probably a 5) and should turn hands with significant showdown value into bluffs. It doesn't sound like you're confident about that, though. Just because you're sure V has a marginal hand doesnt' mean you should bombs away your full range. There's no law against picking off bluffs with marginal hands.
