Default Re: make a big call?

I'd never seen him get caught in a big bluff at the river though.

This seems to be the most telling thing here. How often have you seen a big overbet by this guy on the river get called, and how often has it been the nuts or close to the nuts? One of the key things I take notes on is this. Stuff like "bet 2x the pot on the river with a rivered straight" I usually will let someone else make a big call of this guy so i can get information, but _most_ people arent pushing the rivers on bluffs....takes a certain player to do it...there are ones that i'll call a river push against on a board like this, but they are few and far between.

I guess that is why I posted this. I mostly agree with you. It seems that a lot of people don't though.
It should be noted that this was the first session I've played with this guy, and opportunities for big river bluffs don't come along that often, and also big river bets are pretty rarely called.
