Hey guys, not sure if this has been posted before but I'll post it anyway.
How do you feel about people min betting into the pot? Personally I don't do it as I feel it is a major leak in any player's game. What I have noticed though is that people will still do it regardless.
There are three scenarios where I have noticed it.
1. Min betting into the pot with a weak, made hand, i.e. bottom pair into a high card flop (AQ5 for example).
2. Min betting into the pot with a monster hand or the absolute nuts in the hopes of at least one or numerous calls to increase the pot.
3. Min betting with absolute air in the hopes any small bet will scare away those who have checked.
Has anyone else noticed this trend? I've occasionally found myself raising these min bets only for the player to have a monster hand. Other times I've raised and they've called down to the river with bottom/middle pair or absolutely nothing.
Now obviously if this player is min betting with a monster hand I do not want to be calling and I definitely don't want to be raising.
Has anyone noticed any difference between the three scenarios that would give any clue as to what the player is min betting with? e.g. time taken to bet, double and triple barreled min bets.
Any answers or queries appreciated! Good luck on the tables!
