Posts: n/a
This guy was rarely raising preflop, but was betting a hell of a lot postflop, minbetting with any two. Anything other than an open minbet on the flop by him I perceived as strength.

So I just bode my time and waited for my chance to pick him off, I think I played it well. Any suggestions/questions?

*If he's got something he will probably bet out.
*He could catch 2 pair or trips or something on the river.
*check raise and then check might induce a stab at the pot
*perhaps there are 3 cards in the deck that force a split, but I doubt it- and it is also possible that there are 3 cards in the deck that complete a worse draw to str8- so I am not going to worry in the least about giving someone a free cards when I am holding the NUTS.
*He probably has nothing, but even then, checking is your best chance to get more out of him.

I've made the codec you need available on the same website as my SnG videos. The file you want to download and run is TSCC.exe.
