I Love a Good Bluff

It's not often when you can pull off a good bluff in HORSE limit games. If a player is calling you down, they usually have the correct odds to call a river bet. In the following hand, I played it the way I did because I was pretty agitated at the guy. He had just beat me in a HU match through some terrible suckouts, and after sharkscoping him, found out that he was a consistently losing player.

He was playing pretty LAGgy and bet hard till the river almost every hand. I had just been waiting around for a good hand. This was the best hand I saw in a while and decided to make a play when the turn came.

Enjoy :)
