I don't like your river bet very much. Villain still has some weak holdings, you have showdown equity and now you are turning it into a complete bluff.

He represents the flush... But there is no need to do that here.

Check back river.

You could turn some hands with no showdown value into a bluff but this hand is bad to bluff otr.

I don't think, that I will ever win SD here and he doesn't have what to call me with, cos I'm full of flushes and 8x, so I just bluff it off:)

In the battle of the blinds he has flushes and straights too... I'd rather see showdown.

Maybe you won't win every time but that is ok. Your bluff is very expensive. This is blind vs blind and villain can have low flushes, straights or sets that he checks on the river and he might find a call when you bet.

Villain can have but flushes too. Remember that he is doing the betting on flop and turn...

Exactly which hands are you targeting? Count them. Then count hands that don't fold playing this way. It might just work if you expect him to fold AA and worse. But if you think he'll call with AA/KK (and fold worse), it will surely not work. Disclaimer: I haven't done any counting.
