Me? I min-bet this. Irregardless of whether the flop hits me.

If i'm BB, and only SB sees flop with me, its an auto bet every time. You bet 300 to win a 600 pot. Doest he muck more than 1 time in 3? For sure.

This makes good sense. Any other opinions?

Move in preflop. Once every 3 zillion hands SB is trapping. The rest of the time you take it down.

I strongly considered this, actually. Adjust the hand to something that even you wouldn't move in with, though. (Is there such a hand here?) Same question. Push? Minbet? check/fold?

The first time you do this it works most of the time, but do you try it on the same player again in that game if he just completes? A third time? I would think after three times and probably after two a completion is a trap.
