Playing Right Now

Just wanted to post a ridiculous hand that I just played against a nutso.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?3018745

I like to do a lot of button limping in spots like this where the blinds are deep and don't play very well. Especially this BB who was playing like a monkey, but this hand is just unfathomable. I also think this is a pretty sweet flop to go ahead and put in a bluff raise on the weak min-bet. When he snap-called, I was like 99% sure he was on 7-6 (I was obv. wrong) and was going to press the pot button on the turn. He obv does the same stupid min. bet again, and I ship in, and he beats me in the pot.

I would just like get some sort of insight into the mind of this guy. I know it's tough to misread your hand online, but I just can't explain it any other way. Just kinda funny, but it's nice to know that these players are still depositing money online somehow.

Anyways, I'm done with classes and pretty pumped about it. Right now I am just hanging out, watching the Hawks 2nd-string players stomp all over the Vikes and playing some online. I am 0 for 3 thus far but have a pretty nice stack in the 6:20 on UB.

Well, gotta get back to the tables.

God Bless,

JG

I can't really give anything resembling a coherent thought that would explain why he played the hand the way he did... but I'm wondering why you were so sure he was on a bluff. You say the snap-call of your raise on the flop tipped you off... are you thinking that, if he was stronger, he would think about it and either raise or then flat call? I've experienced a ton of LPP players that will bet out min each street with a draw or a weak hand, but almost as many who will do the same with a strong hand , hoping for an aggressive player with position to pump over the top light like you did. Lemme know what your thought process was...

thanks
