BB showed A♥: 8♥: and lost (-$25.10 net)

Preflop: This is rather in my 4bet range, but I was tired and just misplayed and flatted. Considering price it's not that bad I guess.

Postflop: I decided to x/c OTF to keep Villain's bluffing range wider. If I raise, I only get action from flushes and sets and those hands would bet OTT anyway. If Villain would bet big OTT, I'd consider x/jaming. OTT, x/x - at this point I understand that Villain doesn't have much.

My plan OTR: Betting big doesn't accomplish much - too much strength. With under betting I can get calls from 1-card flushes, like AxQs, AxKs.

As you see I Induced a spazz from Villain with an underbet. This is somewhat new territory for me, which I'll explore for sure. Do you notice many spews in spots like this? I mean, with under betting OTR and kind of shoving weakness.

Indeed they can totally bluffraise small river bets, that's why it's always interesting to consider those.

3bet, cbet, check, raise 8x. Can someone explain me how villain possibly thought about the hand?
Where I play there are no players that raise rivers this way in 3bet pots has a bluff.
The only thing I can say is that a check OTR won't induce as many bluffs as bet (about the size, well...)

i use small river bets a lot, and "standard regs" don't bluffraise enough. given the results, this seems to be no standard reg though...
i believe this hand is quite standard, though i'm probably assuming that the big flop bet means strength more often than not and will just try to get the money in before some scare card discourages villain. as played, the small river bet is great.
