Playing Against A Nemesis PLO8

[prodonkey]

Personally I've had a few of these, back in the day of PL 8 on UB. But I've found more often than not, they were just doing things that worked well vs me. I think playing against these type of players is very good for improving your game. Usually it's an agressive player too.. which is obviously going to magnify your swings so you are much more likely to notice since you're usually playing big pots.

I actually don't know what the villain would do on a non-club turn if I just called...Don't know if he would lead at it or just check-call if it was a non-club low...

IMNSHO this might be the bottom line for you in this thread. Maybe as part of cracking this particular villain's "code" you need to know ahead of time that he would either fold, c/c, etc. on a turn that is safe for you. It at least seems likely that this would enable you to be more confident in making your flop decisions in these spots.
