edit: removed results - oopsies

Missed the edit time, but this is 50NL. Converter sucks.

bump - this is a potential leak in my game, any feedback? I do this every once in a while. Also while he is passive postflop this is more of turn and river callish-type player, he does regularly continuation bet, it seems.

Looks pretty standard to me. Preferably you've sat with villain long enough to know he will let go of two overs here. It's a good way to keep him honest to win some small pots.

I will do this with guys who are 75/65 once and if they fold, I know they are decent post-flop players. It is a cheap way to get a future read on someone who is not afraid to over bet and raise at will.

I do this sometimes. I'm usually just spewing chips though [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
I prefer to do it with AK on a ragged flop headsup however, seems to work better then.
