My favorite move has to do with me raising preflop - hitting and then betting out slightly less than your usual continuation bet....nothing overly obvious, eg. Raise from button to $300 with AJo...BB calls, pot of $750....bet (if you usual continuation bet is 1/2 the pot) $350 on the flop when JXX rainbow hits. I think this is a subconcious thing about almost betting your continuation bet that stinks of weakness. I have seen so many players stomp my bet thinking they are good with 2nd pair or top pair weak kicker...only to find out different. Against strong players, just underbet it a little. Works extremely well when stacks are getting a little short and you want to destack your opponent.
