PokerStars - 40/80 NL (2 max) - Holdem - 2 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3

BB: 1,019 (12.7 bb)
Hero (SB): 1,981 (24.8 bb)

Hero posts SB 40, BB posts 80

Pre Flop: (pot: 120) Hero has 9♦: K♣:
Hero calls 40, BB checks

Flop: (160, 2 players) Q♦: 7♥: J♠:
BB bets 80, Hero calls 80

Turn: (320, 2 players) 8♥:
BB checks, Hero checks

River: (320, 2 players) A♥:
BB bets 80, Hero raises to 279, fold

Results: 480 pot (0 rake)
Final Board: Q♦: 7♥: J♠: 8♥: A♥:

Hero wins 480

I know that my range was capped, on the other hand he showed me weakness and I decided to bluff.
How do you usually deal with these spots when having capped range and facing really weak range. Do I need good info for bluffing in these situations?

I wouldn't mind a shove for 12bb effective against most players. if he's tight you can min raise/fold as well pre-flop. This way you set him under pressurepre-flop with in mind most players calling to tight for the tournament life.

Preflop is fine to shove, minraise or limp but as default this hand is fairly strong with stack depth we have. Depends on villain of course but as default whatever my line is preflop it would be with stack off plan. Unless villain raise small.

Postflop seems fine. It's lot easier for you to have Ax in limped pot so this small river bet looks heavily like some T8 or Jx which likely fold to raise. This K high should be pretty much bottom of your range on river so work as bluff nicely.
