    Default Huge overbet on flop

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($25.85)
    SB ($16.45)
    BB ($26.90)
    UTG ($23.70)
    MP ($87.46)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with T, 9. SB posts a blind of $0.10.
    2 folds, Hero calls $0.25, 1 fold, BB checks.

    Flop: ($0.60) T, 8, 2 (2 players)
    BB bets $3.6, Hero calls $3.60.

    Turn: ($7.80) 3 (2 players)
    BB bets $0.25, Hero calls $0.25.

    River: ($8.30) J (2 players)
    BB bets $0.25, Hero calls $0.25.

    Final Pot: $8.80

    The flop bet was retarded, I felt it meant villain didn't have shit, and the min-bets reinforced my assumption. Okay play with a read?

    eh, I would rather see him show down with that overbet line somewhere else (or maybe if he seems tilting) before calling it with a bluff-catching hand liek that. If you had a player-specific read, definitely nh..but be careful not to associate all overbets as bluffs. some overbet good hands, like me.

    I think this is fine yeah. Usually the huge flop bet means

    a) he's retarded
    b) he doesn't have shit

    I fold flop, because the pot will be big by the turn and river if I call and I risk being lead into again big time on later streets while I hold a very marginal hand. As benny said, I would rather call if I had seen him showdown a hand where he had overbet the flop before.
