Bluff or not your views?

edited April 2012 in The Poker Clinic
I would like your thoughts on this hand as i think the guy was bluffing as he was most hands he was betting with air but decided to fold it as better spots can be had and was only calling a bluff here. What are your views on this would you make the call?

    Fold pre.

    As played, bet flop & turn bigger - Especially turn when we're beating all the other 2 pair combinations (Except overpairs which raise pre-flop) and we can get a decent amount of money in while we're ahead, or cause our opponent to make a mistake by giving him the wrong price to draw to the flush.

    River is probably a sigh fold now as any Q beats us, as well as the flush.

    yea def a folder pre lol just had a look that 1 time (infact not sure why i did call pre lol). Always a difficult one for me with paird boards and i hold the other card out of pos! this is def something i should look at more and i think thats good advice pingu as if i bet more hes more likley to reraise or shove on me if he holds the 4! betting the amount i did and him flat calling i dont know where i am! and kinda asking for trouble by doing the work for him. If i make a decent sized bet on the turn same again if he shoves i can fold as hes not gonna flat call the turn if its big enough. The Q on the end made it easier in the end and more than likely thats what he had. Thanks for the feed back pingu :)

    Dazler pre is pretty horrific mate, at least raise if you want to play it lol.

    Flop and turn you should have best so want to bet for value however you can get more by betting more and he still calls.

    River crazy overbet often means he wants paying and with paired board any Q beats you so right fold for me ;).
