Not Quite All-In
I've been playing poker online for about 6 months now. I recently found a great site to play on and have focused on playing tables on this site alone. In my small limit NL games, I'm starting to see a trend that I never noticed on any other site and I'm wondering if this is a new thing or if its the players on this site.
Players will go ALMOST all in... say they have 1750 chips and they'll bet 1600 on the river. To me, if I have a hand I believe is winner, I'm just going to raise the MF'er all his chips and force him to re-think. This is a sign of weakness to me, he's saying "I think I have the nuts but I'm not gonna put both feet in the river." So of course, I'm gonna make him do just that. Lately though, it's been a friggin trap for the nuts to get all his chips in. This is driving me crazy, and totally screwed with my theory on this. Anyone else find this? It pisses me off.
