I think minimum betting after the flop, is a very telling move. Whether it's telling others that you are weak player too scared to make a real bluff after every one has checked two full streets, or that you are a stronger player taking advantage of those who instantly see minimum betting as a sign of weakness, it undoubtedly reveals something about your game. Take this hand below that just feels so good to take down:

The villain had taken down a few pots before this with aggressive over betting of the river and I knew he/she was a perfect candidate for the min. bet/raise. I knew as soon as I min. bet the villain would go all in. It's Beautiful how things go your way sometimes. Yes, this villain was a weak player but this is who this tactic is great for.
Any other thoughts on minimum betting? When and how do you use it? What do you think when you see it?
