9T turns FH

[daven]

I"m playing a fairly erratic style. Stuff like min-raise opening 9T from EP... Bullied my way to win a few pots, been shown to be a little out of line a couple of times, especially 3-betting preflop...
Doesn't matter though, villain is crap - a 30/8 donor.
I figure him for a 9 at least, and doubt his abiltity to fold "OMG i got trips", I figure pushing gives him the chance to "I'll show that bluffer, what a fish!".
I also like min-raising and giving him the chance to push.
Thoughts?

I think the third option is best. Set him up to get it in on the river, I doubt he has a draw here and you're still pretty deep.

With the minraise he's either testing the waters or he's baiting you. If he's baiting, the money's going in regardless. If he's testing, shoving will push him out whereas a smaller raise might look like you just being your usual irritating fishy self.

Re-raise because there is a lot of money behind.

[daven]

he called the push, but it was a bad line by me - he tanked and i think almost folded. At least his Q9 didn't improve...

[Fnord]

Against a crap donator I think shoving a much smaller mistake because you're less likley to push him off a draw.

Yup, I think this is a perfect CiB situation!
