    I disagree. I occasionally 3b bluff people who I know habitually c/minraise any TP hand because they think of it as somewhat of an 'information raise' and would almost never continue against a 3b. If you call he will probably bet the turn for value with those hands and think he's too deep into it to fold on the river.

    This was really early on in the session maybe 20 hands or so and he had min raised before but it never went to showdown so i didn't know how he was reacting to aggression. When he min raised this board and the turn bricked I just couldn't find a fold and shipped over his turn bet coz i didn't think he would fold any top pair hand or middle pair with a gut shot. Thanks for the advice and insight guys. I appreciate it.

    Hmmm maybe its just me, but really the only players that are doing this top pair minraise nonsense are whales and fish. And those players are DEFINITELY not folding to a 3bet on the flop here, especially if we make it kinda small.

    I'd say its much more likely that if we call this minraise to a fish, that he checks back the next street or something, than if we 3bet and he calls and calls at least another street.

    In this case, if he's that spazzy and we've seen him barrel bluff then I don't mind calling. But if he's that spazzy, he might just ship 89, JT type stuff over a small 3bet anyhow.
