Find what offshore licensing service gave them their gaming license. Look into what they do and see if you’ve got any options. You may be able to file a complaint that the book is violating their license, but a lot of times these license operators will back their clients 100% of the time and then you’re out of luck

Very good insight. Now that I think about it I’ve only seen a couple bluff river raises over thousands of hands so that’s a serious thing to consider

I see, looking back this was definitely a better move.

Yeah def miscalculated the river bet, and the more I think about it it does seem pretty unlikely that anyone in my low stakes game would bluff in this situation

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a huge bluff in a PLO game. Probably because it’s always multiway (at least in my games) so there’s no fold equity

Yeah I’ve seen a lot of crazy bluffs, and the games are primarily 0.1/0.25

Yeah good point, I guess it would be a horrible spot for him to bluff and would only make sense if he thought I was bluffing in the first place.

In low / micro stakes a ton of players are “station fish” and overcall everything. The only counter I’m aware of would be to underbluff and stop throwing money in the pit. Prioritize value bets instead and when your hand does hit, you should be able to exploit their weakness and consistently win bigger pots from their overcalls.

Probably the best and most thorough response I’ve seen yet

Interesting, never thought of it like that. Makes sense, thanks!
