how do you guys find it best to combat a compulsive minraiser? alot of the time ill do my standard c-bet on perhaps a mid pair board, or with TP, and ill find myself being minraised, i dont want to be pushing over him incase he is trap betting me, so instead i will call and get good odds to see a turn/river card.

IS this the best way to counter a minraise or could someone suggest something else?

see what your opponent minraises with. many at that limit will just minraise with any top pair. some will do it with 2 pair, a set, or even a draw. learn the player, and then take advantage of his weakness.

1 of 5 things.
have a hand and re-raise 3-4 x his bet,
have a hand and call then c/r
no hand and re-raise 3-4 x his bet,
call for good pot odds for a nut hand,
fold
