Not sure if it's entirely relevant but villain is 73/45/3.75 over a tiny sample of 11 hands.

Question: do aggressive villains really min bet like that on the flop and turn? What does this usually mean, monster or air? He bet a bit larger on the river, but now I've made the straight. Can I raise here?

i dont know why youre checking river. want to c/r a minbet? i lead about 1

im raising to 2.30 intending to get it AI (2.30 because of BB)

Re: 10NL - made straight, river play
 

I would reraise 1,5$ on the river and pray that he calls or shoves. No villain on that level would be minibetting like that if he hit a set. Theyre usually slowplaying. If he shoves above you then you stop think and shoves. He usually only crap when they play this line. Maybe he hit the AQ but then your lucky and he would probably bet harder on the flop. Maybe expect a split sometimes...

Buddy list this guy.

You've found a loose player who's technically aggressive, in that he bets frequently, but he's also a bitch because he doesn't bet enough to scare anyone. So you've got someone who won't bet enough to price you out of your draws here.

You know he's stupid because

a) he plays 73% of his hands, and
b) he bets the minimum

Therefore he most likely has little to nothing, probably just one flopped pair.

We don't technically have the nuts, but we're winning this pot almost every time.
