In the sit n goes against new villains, both players are trying to learn each other's game off of a few hands. One strange line within the first 10 hands can easily lead the villain to believe you are an aggressive donkey. I'll make another post adding to this when I can find a good example.

I couldn't find the full hand history for this so I will have to describe the hands leading up to this by memory.

I had never played this guy before but we got off to an extremely aggressive start. On one of our first pots I gave a pot size cbet and he raised the [censored] out of me so I folded. A hand or 2 later we were in a raised pot with a low flop so I raised the [censored] out of him with overs knowing that he wouldn't be able to call. We had a few hands of folding to reraises preflop then the next flop we saw came to this one:

FullTiltPoker Game #3706159359: $110 + $5 Heads Up Sit & Go (28254890), Table 1 - 15/30 - No Limit Hold'em - 13:11:43 ET - 2007/09/29

*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 2,680 | Rake 0

Seat 2: scrum9911 (big blind) showed [8h 6h] and lost with two pair, Aces and Eights

I'll probably get [censored] about how this isn't a standard play from a villain, but by the aggressive nature of the game I knew from the moment I saw the flop that if I took a non-standard line for the ace (standard in my experience is to check/call the flop) he would be willing to risk losing to rep that he had it.
