50NL - Bluff Line V Good Laggy Reg

Lambert180

Villian is a good laggy reg capable of 3betting light and firing multiple barrels w/ air, so deffo has a fairly wide range by the turn of OPs, TP hands, J9s, gut shots, turned FDs and some air.

I'm sure villain will think I'm pretty solid/tight.

Apart from JJ it's vv hard for the villain to have any sets here and I think a set is pretty much the only hand he will continue with facing my turn raise.

Thoughts?

"Apart from JJ it's vv hard for the villain to have any sets here and I think a set is pretty much the only hand he will continue with facing my turn raise."

Really? AdJd, Adxd, AA-QQ, maybe a Q10/108 bluff hand that has pciked up equity (especially if diamonds). All hands he could have that would probably at least call the 4/1 pot odds.

Granted its not a lot of hands but more than just sets. I think your bluff is fine BTW, looks very strong and is a very cheap bluff too (with outs).

if this is how you play your sets you're making a mistake imo

^ its not. Its a completely unbalanced play on this occasion because pretty sure villian thinks I'm very solid so just exploiting that.

Yeah I did say pretty much sets there are a few other combos he will continue with but not many

If you mean that Lambert repping a set/playing a set this way is wrong then I think your wrong.

Setwise: We need to build the pot, get value and charge any draws. This also sets up:

Bluffs: If we play our sets this way it opens up bluff oppertunities (and cheap ones!) for the times we float flops and abuse our percieved image. No good having a tight/solid image if we cant exploit it in good spots.
