Why do you min-raise on the flop? It seems to me a chance for him to ram it down your throat a bit more (on the flop!) - enough so that implied odds can't possibly justify calling with just medium pair. I'm more inclined to smoothcall and hope for a nice turn card. Then again, I'm still trying to acclimate myself to NL Ring...

That play would have also given you a free river card if it hadn't hit on the turn... Did you have a read that said he would just call the flop and then check the turn to you? Otherwise I'm not sure if I like it..

Oh, and this is when you respond: "nh there sir"
