I found this hand from awhile ago. I was tilting in April and just having a horrible month. I've played against this villain A LOT and can sometimes read her quite well. I don't really show bluffs but since I was in a bad mood, I decided to show this one.

Villain is 27.84/22.18/2.63

Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $5/$10
3 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (3 players) Hero is Button with T
Hero raises, SB folds, BB calls.

Flop: (4.6SB, 2 players)
BB bets, Hero raises, BB 3-bets, Hero calls.

I've seen her donk fold before so I raised and she 3bets. When she bet/3bet, I was very sure she was on a flush draw. Can someone give me a good reason to ever donkbet/3bet as a semibluff? I really don't think it works very well.

Turn: (5.3BB, 2 players)
BB bets, Hero raises, BB calls.

Ok, so this person is an aggrotard and would never just simply call the turn w/trips. She would def. 3bet here so now I know she doesn't have the Queen.

River: (9.3BB, 2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB folds.
Uncalled bets: 1BB returned to Hero.

Aww, the converter doesn't show it but I show her the 10high. And now I'm afraid she might never fold to a river raise :/ No more bluffs for me!

Haha, I actually think she might've had the Ace as i do remember she took awhile before folding. But I'm leaning towards no as she is also a huge calling station.

Results:
Final pot: 9.3BB

This can be fine vs this player.

Don't make a habit out of this, and don't show it!

are you bragging or asking a question?

This combo can not be good.

You bluffed 4 times with Ten high against a calling station.

Save these plays for when your hand at least has some showdown value (A high+)

I haven't played much with this particular player, but I know of her from around AP and the AP-related forums, and she's definitely good enough to fold when we're representing something that beats her. She's not going to call with a busted K-high flush draw because she thinks we're making a move with T-high.
