villain was opening w a MR about two times an orbit, and it was working pretty well against the table. Villain was also autofolding his blinds, so a MR stole it from them. putting him on overs most of the time, I tried this - thoughts?

oh, btw this is a three table tourney, top 5 get paid, 10 left, so another short-handed table exists.

????? I didn't understand this post very well. Villian was both mini raising to steal blinds and auto folding his blinds???? Your play is also confusing

After villian calls your flop bet, you have to give it up. But if you're bent on going to war, check raise all-in, or push pre-flop.

Why'd you pick this particular hand to make a stand? Suited?

I'd much rather pick a stronger hand and reraise PF. If he's doing this incessantly that is.
