Lately I have been mixing single-core connectors.

For example j10s but it seems to me that it depends more on the opponent, if I see that he often throws away to a raise then I do it

For me, it's not my hand that matters, but who my opponent is. I only bluff against those who are clear to me.

Hi @Vovk and everyone,
Lately I've been experimenting with 3-bet bluffing using hands like J9s or T9s — they have decent post-flop equity when they connect with the board and help me keep a balanced image.
Do you adjust your bluffing frequency depending on the opponent or board texture? Or do you stick to a defined range in standard spots?
I'd love to hear how you adapt these plays in different formats — like cash games vs. short-stack tournaments. Thanks for the discussion!

Suited wheel aces like A5s or A4s—great blockers and play well postflop if called.
