The Bizarre Tiny Bet Thread
Before the current Irie post I have oft wondered what the heck people have when they make a crazy small bet into a big pot. How about posting it in this thread if you see hand like this that goes to showdown?

Possibly KK. 5.50 players are weird. |

Re: The Bizarre Tiny Bet Thread
Cool.
He pretty clearly seems to think of it as a blocking bet. He did manage to see a cheap showdown with pretty close to the nut worst hand on the second hand. He didn't want you to bluff him out with a 48. |

Re: The Bizarre Tiny Bet Thread
micro, I think that on the lower levels, the mini-flop bet generally means one of 4 things.
1) A bet to take it down, as for some reason they've figured out that the multi-tablers can fold to even this sized bet. I see this often out of the SB. If you raise this guys bet, you almost always take it down. 2) A bet representing any paired card on the board. 3) A bet to scare off hands when the board comes QQ8 (or the like). I'd say 90% of the time, this hand is very weak. 4) A bet to build the pot when it's multi-handed and someone thinks their hand is the nuts, which it could be. |

Re: The Bizarre Tiny Bet Thread
I think that ScubaChuck is right on with his 4 reasons why guys mini-bet. If I see a guy do it more than once or twice, I've started doing something like this (PP 22, blinds 25-50)
UTG ( $1950 ) UTG+1( $1120 ) CO ( $390 ) Button ( $1280 ) SB (HERO) ( $1590 ) dealt 8sJs BB ( $1670 ) UTG, CO, Button, HERO all call. BB checks. ** Dealing Flop ** [ 2s, 6c, 9d ] (Pot t250) HERO checks. BB checks. UTG bets [50]. CO folds. Button folds. HERO calls [50]. BB folds. ** Dealing Turn ** [ 4c ] (Pot 350) HERO bets [250]. UTG folds. I don't do this often, but in this case, I had the benefit of knowing that there was a good chance that I could get the pot heads up. It was also a benefit that I was OOP. Plus, villain had mini-bet twice before. |
