Villain seems like an average TAG but he's only been at the table a couple of orbits so I don't have any meaningful stats yet.

I'm trying to be like gabe.

Step 1: I have a pair and I think it's good, I call.
Step 2: Oops, I guess it's no good after all. I'm all-in.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

BB ($54.40)
UTG ($53.45)
Hero ($50.50)
SB ($47.10)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 8, 8.
UTG raises to $2, Hero calls $2, 2 folds.

Flop: ($4.75) 3, 4, T (2 players)
UTG bets $4.5, Hero calls $4.50.

Turn: ($13.75) A (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero checks.

River: ($13.75) 3 (2 players)
UTG bets $9.5, Hero raises to $30

I like it. But your title is misleading.

in my limited experience, you have to push if you want him to fold and thats not a push
<Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

it depends on what I think of my opponent. If you just think he's nit not thinking push. If he's nit thinking I like your raise.
