SSNL Study Session #2 Topic: Don't Justify Their Optimistic Calls

[MyTurn2Raise]

It also struck me how important the reads on the opponent is in these situations.

How often does s/he bluff?
Do they chase with draws hoping to stack?
What size bets does the opponent seem to fear/respect? Does this vary based on the type of draw they hold?

I think this is nearly as important as the effective stack sizes, but it was not emphasized enough in the reading for my taste.
