take the card he's giving you on the turn, then make this play on the river if you think he's that weak tight.

This is a good line of course. However, I simply felt he's betting some scared missed hand that he won't be able to call a raise with, so why see another card? And when he reraised me like that, coming from this opponent, it felt like he's saying: "don't push me around...", but in a very weak way. I figured I can take it down at that point, and that's what I did. I played fairly tight up to this point, and it's nothing I'll do without a rather strong read. I'm still not sure if it was that great, but it worked well for me.

I think that there's a lot of equity in finding these spots against weak players, and I'm trying to do this more and more. It's dangarous and read dependend, so that's why I'm looking for feedback.
