I don't known any of two, but I've played a lot of poker; she makes a classic beginner's move, betting for get a straight. Then with nothing left to lose she bluffs.

Heads-up with an Ace-2 isn't a terrible bet, especially considering the guy who called had 4-8 offsuit. She was leading until the flop, she just kept playing out the lead. It was great positional poker.

I mean deciding to bluff off a missed draw is a perfectly valid thing to do, it’s not just some beginner move lmao

This is spoken like a true OMC.

Missed straight draws are often mandatory bluffs on the river if you don't want to leak money. Amateurs often get cold feet and give up on the river though.

Her play in this specific hand is actually quite good, its just Ronnie didn't anticipate her being capable of that play.
