HUSNG Min-Betting
 

I was just playing a turbo $11 HUSNG on FTP and noticed a player doing something peculiar - minimum betting every hand.

If he's on button, he min-raises. If I limp from button, he min-raises. He bets every street and shows ace high, I show bottom pair. That sort of thing.

Anyway, I assumed he was a total fish but then I scoped him and after 1100 games he has a 6% ROI which is pretty decent for heads up.

Thoughts? He didn't devise this strategy after he got a read on me, he did it the whole time. After 30 or so hands, the only time that he DIDNT min bet is when he made a huge overbet bluff on a scary board. I folded, he showed.

I ended up winning, but just wondering if you guys think this strategy has some merit.

he was probably very drunk and thought he was playing minbet holdem.

This "strategy" sucks unless he runs insanely good vs. you. He probably wins a decent amount because his opponents do not adjust properly. He will get killed at higher levels. If you are calling him down with bottom pair, king high, etc., you probably adjusted well.
