    It wasnt a fish and was less 100 runners left or so big5 and I didn't have much info like said , but sizings/stacksizes do tell a lot imo.

    And your last comment is not right at all, on almost every site I play I do have enough sample in small stakes MTT's, just cause the average size fields aren't that big and I play lots of volume and see same players more often.

    This was just on PS where I don't have the sample. Besides that was moved to this table 11 hands before or so.

    Well obviously if you see someone in multiple tournaments repeatedly day after day, that's different. Your post gave no indication that your hand was that situation. Your hand was from a large field tournament on Pokerstars, where my statement is perfectly applicable. I know from experience that most people vastly over adjust based on their "reads" on players. I play HU SnGs and see situations where someone can play the same player for dozens or even hundreds of games and still over adjust based on their reads. People vastly underestimate the number of hands required vs someone before a read actually becomes meaningful.
