hero...

He's a really good player. I don't hesitate to suggest that if he's not better than me, I would be surprised. We are the only ones on level 1 at any point in a hand. He's tight aggressive, but also understands that with the minraise retard crap that gets played, he can see cheap flops and hope to maximize his return based on terrible, terrible play. He's also demonstrated he's willing to play back in dangerous spots with me, and that he'll float me with the intention of stealing in pots where he thinks I'm just blind stealing.

He also respects me because I got my money in good against him in the sit and go to win the tournament before we started the cash game.

The rest of the hand, as played:
...Hero raises to 15
Villain Shoves
Hero snap calls.
