Since when did micro players grow a brain? I think I'm still right in ignoring the flush as a 6% possibility and had put him as another calling station looking for/at his lonely premium pair. No info on the player 'cause it was like one of the first hands I played. Other than that he's in micro and therefore PRESUMEABLY wouldn't think to slowplay nuts.

Might be wrong but his check was instantanious so I reckon he might not have even noticed and clicked check/fold already : P

Comments please? I think the simple answer is: don't underestimate your opponent even on gay .01/.02nl

PS: I need more money

Your all-in with a flush on the board was an obvious mistake.
I'll sometimes sit and play a few orbits of .01/.02 to warm up
before getting into an MTT. I usually come away with a couple
of bucks and gets me in tune with poor play. Don't be surprised
to find competent play at all levels.

You're probably better off underestimating them then over estimating them.
