I just had a work meeting where I learned about electronic time cards. In other words, I had time to think about this hand/situation.

I think for this specific hand (given the blinds, no reads, buyin level), this is probably FPS. I'm not saying the bettor may have an 8, because I don't think they do, but this is a tough spot to buy a pot without a read.

I do, however, still think it's important to recognize situations like this where the villian is trying to represent a hand they don't have. When these spots are found, your hand becomes less important than whether or not they'll fold if you show strength.

more to come...i have another work meeting...
