Why such a small 3-bet if you're willing to play for stacks?

Setting up a turn bet that prices out draws and keeping him in the game if he's got a worse Queen.

You plan to push turn if he just calls the flop minraise?

What did you see in his play that made you think you were good here? This HH needs some reasoning behind it to be valuble.

I didn't min-re-raise. Yes, I was going to shove most turn cards.

Is this a 2nd level humor post?

1) I love em
2) If button typically calls and you're happy playing for stacks with TP against this villain is raising more a problem?
3) never in this situation
4) see my comment above
5) [] clearly you made the best play [/]

Um, don't post results? I'd like to hear your read on the villain.
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

Um....this whole thread was a commentary on doing everything you're not supposed to do and winning. Goes to show there's more than one way to do everything.

You did exactly the opposite of everything that is preached in these forums. I assumed you were trying to make a point....

Yup, it's part of the answer to why people who play cookie cutter poker are bitching about downswings and long break-even swings right now despite playing a game where the fish should be drawing pretty much dead.

Similar reasoning why I play LAGG to start SNG's and TAGG to finish.

*shrug*, the adjustments we make to our opponents are vastly more important than the adjustments we try to get them to make.
