A friendly poker pro from germany (villain) was 2 seats to my left at Imperial Palace, with over $1500 in front of him. (He'd been playing all night.) I had about $380 in front of me ($300max buyin), and had been playing very tight for about 2 hours. (Earlier, another player said to me: "c'mon, play a hand".) Villain had regularly done a button-straddle (bet $4 before action starts, so action starts with SB, BB, and Btn acts last). He seemed to always end up betting these hands very strongly and stealing the pots (eg: $12 pre-flop or more post-flop).
On one of his button straddles, I had in Hijack, so I raised to $15. He said (in German accent): "You raise my straddle?", then he called -- w/o looking at his cards.
Flop ($33):
I bet $50 with my TP. He peeked at cards and called.
Turn ($133):
I bet $80 w my T2P, and he calls.
River($293):
I have about $240 left. My move?
