PokerStars - 10/20 NL (2 max) - Holdem - 2 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 29.75 BB
Hero (BB): 20.25 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 9♠ 7♠

SB calls 0.5 BB, Hero checks

Flop: (2 BB, 2 players) J♦ 2♣ T♦
Hero checks, SB checks

Turn: (2 BB, 2 players) 6♥
Hero bets 1.5 BB, SB calls 1.5 BB

River: (5 BB, 2 players) K♦
Hero bets 3.75 BB, fold

Spoiler

Hero wins 5 BB

I guess that 2x and 6x should be folding (don't know how many of these low cards villain have) and even some weak Tx might fold vs such action.

I am not really sure what kind of hands they check back on the flop. Again one of those spots that are not very frequent. I mean, some time they fold it right on the turn. So I don't get to the river all of the time. And I have never made any calculations in this spot. As I said - it is just a guesstimation once again hehe. That's what I love and hate at the same time about poker

My question is: did I pick a good bluffing hand? (having a diamond or Qx could be nice for sure) and how about river bet? I am not sure which hands should I check back on the river and which hands should I continue bluffing with? (going to play in Flopzilla a little bit to realize how wide can I bluff on the river).

What do you think?

Thank you.

Theory wise bluffing this on river is too wide but thing is most people are not checking flop much with fd or KQ type hands. So going wider as default with bluffs is going to work often. But as you said having diamond or Q would be better.
