Full Version: Facing A Min-raise ($109 Sng)

I've been playing fairly aggressive, but not ridiculously so. I've been 4-tabling, and for some reason, I don't have Poker Ace HUD on yet, so I really have no read on villian.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

CO (t2050)
Button (t2390)
SB (t1770)
BB (t2515)
UTG (t1970)
UTG+1 (t3100)
MP1 (t2565)
Hero (t3640)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 8, 8.
3 folds, Hero raises to t300, CO raises to t600, 3 folds

Edit: Looking at PokerTracker, I only had 24 hands on him at this point anyway, so I doubt that would have been very significant in my decision making.

I call, and play any flop very cautiously.

You could make a play at him on a super safe flop, but most of the time, this is an over pair, I think. Could be AK too. Tough to say. I'm not a $109 expert.

The problem is, if he is good, and he knows you're good, he could be min raising as a sign of massive strength, with something that is relatively weak. Depends on what level he is thinking, I suppose. This really is read dependent, I imagine, so work on that tongue.gif

Agreed. I'm probably folding, but if he's relatively tight, pushing could take the pot away from a hand like AQ, 99, TT, even JJ if he's real tight.
