Interested in any rules of thumb for best holdings to bluff with on the river.
This hand was a clear fold for me, but given his range is so polar having donked the river for large size I wanted to think about what my bluffing range could be here or if I should even have a bluffing range here (notionally should be defending half my range vs pot sizing)? My value raises are the best flushes, I think weaker flushes, straights and sets call - 2 pair is marginal and worse probably folds given how connected the board is.
I think that leaves me needing some bluffs - the obvious one being hands with the A♦, but what about hands with 7's which block Villains likely straights e.g. 67/79s)? If bluffing with these types of blockers do we prefer them to include a diamond (lowering odds of facing a flush) or exclude diamonds and clubs to keep missed flushes in Villains range?
