    Default When you have a hand against all expectations.

    Table is very passive to my left. Villain is a regular that I've been playing with almost every session, so he knows how I play, and he knows I'll c-bet on this flop 100% of the time. He also plays fairly well, so I really expect him to defend here. So what do you do here?

    I'm really confused with the HH. I never make it 10c to go... I always make it 16 in this spot, but then the rest of the betting doesn't make any sense. Anyway... let's assume I misclicked or something.

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.04 BB (8 handed) - Party-Poker Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    UTG ($11.17)
    Hero (UTG+1) ($9.44)
    MP1 ($5.10)
    MP2 ($6.27)
    CO ($5.00)
    Button ($2.43)
    SB ($3.90)
    BB ($5.00)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with 10 K
    4 folds, Hero raises to $0.10, MP1 calls $0.08

    Flop: ($0.22) K K 2 (4 players)
    Hero bets $0.16, MP1 raises to $0.32, Hero calls $0.16

    Turn: ($0.86) 5 (4 players)
    Hero checks, MP1 bets $0.44, Hero calls $0.44

    River: ($1.74) 4 (4 players)
    Hero bets $1.00, MP1 calls $1.00

    Total pot: $3.74

    bet .20 on flop, then if he CiB like he did bump it up to $1. That will make it easier to get the rest in on the turn.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    Please note that a min-raise is not a CiB.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    What is CiB?

    The problem was that I thought he didn't need anything to raise me there and I didn't want him to give up. On the other hand I want to jack the pot up.
    A more reasonable raise would have probably been been better, I think you're right.
