Jonathan Little Attempts a Weird Bluff (in Perhaps the Worst Possible Manner)
Today I want to share an interesting hand from a $3,000 buy-in World Series of Poker event that, well, I probably messed up. The hand features a somewhat strange river spot where I attempted a bluff — one I didn't necessarily set up as well as I could have with my prior actions in the hand.
It was early in the event, with the blinds 50/100 and effective stacks around 9,000. A player in middle position raised to 300 and it folded to me in the big blind where I'd been dealt . I discuss below how with such deep stacks calling is somewhat mandatory in this spot (and three-betting sometimes okay, too, against certain opponents).
