Hand 1:
This guy is raising 6x every single time, and he pretty much always does it on the button or CO. He's been really aggressive in all hands I've seen him in. I didn't think he had anything good when just calling, so I hoped he'd try to bluff the pot when I checked.
Hand 2:
Same thing, I wanted to seem weak and worried about the other 10, I was pretty sure the player was either on a draw or had the queen, did not think he'd just call with mid pair. SO I wanted the overly aggressive player to bet/bluff at me.
What do you think of the hands, and what do you think of using this move against those hyper aggressive players? Maybe it's standard, I dunno, but worked well in these cases. I was pretty sure the other player didn't have anything that beat me in these cases, cause when I show weakness a player with a real good hand would rather value bet than try pushing me out of the hand I think.
