the habitual minraiser and minbetter
These two people annoy the hell out of me.
We all know them, you're on the button with 67s (or on the BB and the button or UTG minraises) and you call, and one of the blinds minraises, its still worth a call..but hey a lot of people like to do this to "trap"...but they do it every time they raise. After that (since these people almost ALWAYS do this out of position..) they minbet the flop, and you can't tell the difference between a hit and miss from them
How do you adjust your game to these minbetting calling stations, especially in the BB and button situations
Re: the habitual minraiser and minbetter
With no read, I just ignore the pf miniraise. If I'm going to limp, I call it. If I'm going to raise, I raise it. The only time it kinda sucks is when I have junk in the BB. I don't call the miniraise, so they did push me out of the hand.
You should definitely pay attention to their position when they miniraise. More often than not, monsters hiding behind miniraises come from either ep or in late when they fear no one will call them. Also, see how they respond to the flop. See what they showdown. Many miniraises are with drawing hands like suited connectors or with small pps.
