KT this was limit.
Not pot limit - $2 limit
It is rare to pull a bluff at limit especially with a Creek Brother in the game.

In this case I got away with a bluff at limit only Because a Creek brother was in the game (betting as I figured on the third worst hand).

Another $2 raise at that point was not going to cost me but $2.
Had Creek had a full boat with queens he would have raised and that would have been that.

Besides, I wanted to get in Georges mind more with my pre-announcement. It was well worth $2.
Actually I think my play was one of the best plays you will ever see because it involved a successful bluff at a limit game with a weak player in the hand. Bluffs in limit games with weak players are very difficult. Had the third player not been a strong player it would not have worked.
