    Default bluff catcher at micros

    Bad sample size on the guy, so no stats and no reads.

    $0.05/$0.1 No Limit Holdem
    6 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    UTG Yankeezss ($9.25)
    UTG+1 er fabietto ($4.70)
    CO 22dar ($5.40)
    BTN Hero ($15.25)
    SB Fret_1987 ($15.50)
    BB Maximilian91 ($9.95)

    Pre-flop: ($0.15, 6 players) Hero is BTN
    1 fold, er fabietto calls $0.1, 22dar calls $0.1, Hero raises to $0.6, 1 fold, Maximilian91 calls $0.5, er fabietto calls $0.5, 22dar folds

    Flop: ($1.95, 3 players)
    Maximilian91 checks, er fabietto checks, Hero bets $1.3, Maximilian91 folds, er fabietto calls $1.3

    Turn: ($4.55, 2 players)
    er fabietto checks, Hero checks

    River: ($4.55, 2 players)
    er fabietto bets $2.4, Hero?

    Is he doing this with 66-TT? How about diamond draws?
    Check out my self-deprecation here!

    I think when in doubt we should fold and wait until we get a read on him. I usually call anyway, floating oop w/ mid pp´s has become popular again.

    I don't really like c-betting that flop. Two opponents who are probably typical microfish and like calling cuz "hey, I caught a piece!" + coordinated board + flush draw + aces will never, ever fold on that raggedy board, and a lot of middle pairs won't either. I'd just check behind and see a turn, probably c-bet that if they both check again (and no diamond or little card comes off).

    As played, I would fold the river without a read, but if I find myself in this situation with him later I would look him up. First time you get credit, second time you get suspicion.

    check behind this flop.

    As played calling the river is fine.

    Do you really think a random 10NL player is betting anything other than an A or a 2?

    I don't want to be a nit but I can't imagine what he has except AA, maybe AK.

    Play micros sometime and you'll realize that when people see an ace they will see a flop no matter what, no matter if they have to call off 10% of their stack or whatever.

    C-betting isn't bad but I probably wouldn't do it on this flop at these stakes.

    Hero folds on the turn no question about it.

    i dont think its like zomg bad, i just dont do it. i do it sometimes if im its a pot with nits, but at a table where players call a raise with any ace pre, i just think its marginally -EV.
