Make a psychological sketch, recreate his mind and play "with him". Know his decisions even before he knows them himself.
i'm by no means trying to get defensive, but i don't really know what you're getting at. i started to guess that he was getting to play more "frustrated" due to metagame and his own lack of ability to deal with being played back at.

i know that "frustrated" play means different things to different people. sometimes it means calling down everything with MP because they can't have it every time (especially common among the station folk). for others it means overadjusting and trying to outbluff the other player (a trickier circumstances to deal with). i showed him the K4s hand because his timing tells were starting to tell me that he started to hate folding his marginal hands.

i guess that means that he was going to turn into more of a station than a laggtard, so i probably should have adjusted by betting more as opposed to adjusting by letting him bluff at me?

i'm not looking for the one magical answer i'm just trying to figure out what you're getting at here
