So I was in a turbo today and it was down to me and this other guy, we both have about 7000 in our stacks and blinds are 300/600. Now on his button, he almost never folded, he just min-raised. Normally, I see these min-raises as pot committing, and treat them as shoves, so I usually fold to them. But he was doing them CONSTANTLY. The problem was, they did a good job at disguising his hand. I could shove into him and he could fold, or I could shove into him and he could call. I was down to 3000 chips, he did it again, and I shoved w/ A2o. He called w/ K7 and I won to get back to near even, but he ended up blinding me down again!
For what it's worth, I was getting terrible cards (73o, 82, those sort) but I didn't know how to fight this. I was trying to shove on my button when I could, but I ended up shoving at one point w/ 63o and was called by his K3o to lose the game.
Basically what I'm asking is, is this a viable strategy? Should I have really loosened up my shoving range from the BB after he min-raises? Thats the only way I can think of fighting this strat.
