I was playing SSNL at two tables at PokerPages; Villain was at both tables as well.
At Table 1, UTG, I folded small-unsuited cards and went to Table 2 where I was the BB with 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif . While in middle position at Table 2 Villain raised the pot, almost simultaneously he raised the pot at Table 1. Seeing both pot-sized raises I immediately thought he’s trying to steal at both tables.
I had folded UTG at Table one and the rest of the table folded around to Villain, who took the pot. At Table 2 the Button called the raise as did I. The flop came K/images/graemlins/diamond.gif J /images/graemlins/spade.gif K /images/graemlins/heart.gif. I checked to Villain who has been making pot sized raises on the flop, figuring he would make a pot sized raise on this flop as well. As expected he raised the pot, the button folded, and I re-raised the pot. Villain folded immediately.
What do you all think? Are the simultaneous raises a legitimate tell for Villain (this is only second time I've played with him), or did I just get lucky picking him off at Table 2?
