Whats with the min raises these days? It happened so often at Full Tilt the other night that I had to do a double take and make sure I hadnt sat at limit tables by mistake. Sickening.
I think you make a great play there and hes folding his 77-QQ.

think of 2p2. Then consider which hands they are not folding, like ever, because they think that hand strength+HUD= never fold a set.

Then ask yourself why nits suck.

I can see what your representing, but a nit wont, hes incapable of folding any strong hand ever except a big pp facing aggression.

I love doing this on low boards, because usually you see a 6 or a weak overpair here. but i'd rather do it against a loose weak player (or is that what this player is? Whenevr i hear nit i think tight pre).

If he's a bad nit, then not only does he not use a wild image to get paid off, but he's afraid of "not getting paid" when he does have a big hand.

So he does lame stuff like minraising. It's usually a hand he'd never fold in a million years.

If he's a "good" nit, he's :

-capable of using his image to bluff

-unlikely to pull of the stupid minraise crap when it's for value (since you're "supposed" to think he's nitty hence raising here for value it's a good bluff)

Not sure if that's clear.

so a bad nit isn't checkgayraising 99 here and then folding to clear strength on a scary turn?

in my experience a bad nit will just call with it

but shit man, you've played like 12378237012873x as many hands as me...

yea but im still a breakevenish player at shorthanded nl

The player Renton is up against is perfectly capable of min-raising a wide range on the flop. Check/min-raising on a board like this is rapidly becoming part of the meta-game in small stakes PS.

The problem I see here, is exactly what hand is he trying to sell the other guy he has? AK doesn't often play like this often enough. TT-QQ doesn't either. It looks like either the nuts or a bluff if he's a really good hand reader.

In my experience nits are usually very cautious when a scare cards hits and they are beat, the K here qualifies. Villain here did not feel that either you hold a K or that any single K beats him. I would have folded this turn instead of trying to rep a stronger hand than he is already representing.

He's only a nit preflop. He's pretty aggressive postflop, at least in the ~1000 hands I have on him.
