5/10NL @ Commerce, walking the weak-tight line...

Here's a related question: how do you normally interpret a flop min- check-raise? wtf is it supposed to mean? My usual reaction, if I have any sort of hand is to just call and see what develops. Is that chip-spewing?

I think it's chip spewing. It's designed to get you to call, hit your card, and lose anyway. I only call min-check-raises with draws, and sometimes overpairs. Sometimes I will three-bet them if I think it's someone trying to make a play at me, or someone who I see doing it often, or if I have a big hand.

Here's another way to look at it: the check-min-raise means you can't be ahead, right (in most cases)? So you're drawing - but if he has a set, you can't even confidently bet when you hit your card, which you did. If I'm not drawing to the nuts or a hand that I think will beat a check-min-raise hand, I can't call that bet.

Against a nit, I insta-fold and ask him which set he has.

I never understood the point of "villan is ultra nit will fold everything but only raise massive hands and he raised me and I have top pair what should I do" posts.

Fold barring exceptional read.
