Default Study exercise: How to beat this guy?

Hi everyone,

Today I tried something that I found quite helpful. I took the person from my PT database that I've played the most hands against and studied his stats to see how I should play against him. I thought others might benefit (themselves AND me [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) and I haven't seen this done here before so here goes.

How do we beat this guy? I'll post back some of my conclusions after there have been some replies and (hopefully) discussion. Thanks, and I hope you find this worthwhile.

Stats are from full ring $.50/$1.00

He likes to fold. Give him the chances to do so, and value bet his ass like crazy.

Respect his raises.

P.S. If you want me to dig up anything else on him from my PT database let me know.

Looks to me like a typical fish to me who's running hot. We beat him by seeking him out in ring games and snatching that seventy bucks when his cards run cold [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

PS: Value bet his ass every river when you have anything approaching a hand.

Edit: ^^^ sup ass-value-betting buddy

7 BB/100 is definitely running hot.

True, missed that. I looked at the W$SD and figured they were normal for a weak/tight.

This player is a classic weak/tight. Will fold to any aggression so feel free to bluff any flop especially if you were the preflop raiser. Fold all but your best hands to any show of strength (4 checkraises in 2k hands!) and watch out if he raises preflop.
