    I'm around. I tend to read more than I write because when I get started typing I have trouble stopping. I did send you a PM almost a month ago, but haven't had any reply. And I was unavailable all of...

    Well, if kmind is correct and the bet is for value and "He will likely play his range the same way vs both" clearly the larger bet has the larger EV. It's for value. We're (presumably) ahead.

    1) At 2NL any plan that involves bluffing your opponent off his hand is a bad one. It's good to be in the habit of asking yourself if they fold often and observe if they do, but at 2NL bluffing...

    Thanks Spoon. Point well taken.

    Note how Spoon's observation partially invalidates some of my comments.

    What you need to do is plan your hands.

    First, 3x vs 4x. Nothing wrong with 3x. What you need to do (for deception - not a big issue at 2NL but the principle holds) is to be consistent in your...

    Couple things.
    His raise is really really small. It's not a min-raise, but it's close. Put yourself in his shoes for a second. When he makes a small raise is that because he wants you to call or...

    Even if you include only pairs and 8x, 4x in his calling range that means he folds a vast majority of his range and it may be correct to bet the flop with air simply to pick up the dead money. If...

    I know many people describe him as passive, but let's not forget that he's passive on any street other than the river.

    I think the river stats are interesting.

    Not a fully clear cut hand, especially because of MP being in the hand on the flop. Also with a paired board full houses and quads are possible, so you don't know if you have to discount the flush...

    Called or folded. So 56 times he was either folding before anyone had raised the blinds, or was facing a 3bet or 4bet when it came around to him.

    With stats of 8/6 in that means he's raised 5 hands and called preflop one or two times more than that. Have you seen him showdown any hands? Were they raised or just flat called?

    Does he 3bet a...

    No, it's not.

    As I read in a thread around here recently, at the micros assume everyone is passive until they prove otherwise.

    The only reason this is not an automatic fold when the club lands...

    I think the best/most sensible way to deal with the 3 matches is to play two first. Then if the same person wins both, stop. If you win one each, play a decider.
