Is he bluffing?

About 10 mins prior I had taken Villians stack. He couldn’t have been happy about that. Is he bluffing?

I came onto this while reviewing my (big) lost hands from last night. I found that in most cases it was because I ignored the warning signs inherent in someone re-raising me. So I began to wonder if the opposite had also happened…did I win hands where I was re-raised. All in all, I would have won another 10% last night if I had respected ALL re-raises and immediately folded. Still, there are the intangibles to ponder; Like the fact that I called this down and won shows him he can’t just bluff me out of a pot, and vastly reduces the chances he will try it again.

Well before I look at the results.....It is very doubtful he has a 2 whether he is on tilt or not......a minraise at these limits rarely means anything....however the shortstacked is commited now and will showdown so he must be fairly confident....

I believe I put him on A5, Ax, or mid PP....but I put him AI since he is a short stack, on tilt, and on the off chance he thinks his Ax is good I put him AI......

EDIT:Geuss my read was okay....a minraise at these levels usually means nothing, but I geuss sometimes from a shortstack it does, people will tell you if they have a great hand by reraising you much more than the min.
