Is this a good, believable bluff?

Please tell me this is terrible so i can stop doing it thanks

    Didnt read past this but the second line should answer your own question

    I find bluffing these sorts of players more of a challenge though

    Great fun when you get one through!

    I'd c-bet that pretty dry flop then shut down if called.

    Yeh probably not a good spot to be bluffing this type of player for two reasons.

    1. When a passive station leads the turn, you gotta fold here imo.

    2. After they lead the turn you probably aren't going to get them to lay down anything if they have hit any part of the board.

    In this hand i'd standard c-bet, then shut down if they call. Get to a cheap showdown because A high could still be good.

    The villain snap folded to my river bet.

    So i guess this was a brag after all :)

    I bet flop and barrell turn. Does one barrell really work enough on this board

    As played fold turn

    As played check river, you beat/split with most hands he folds
