Default Gross spot vs Scotty Nguyen in Macau ME

APPT Macau 2500 event.

Scotty is up walking around for at least 50% of hands. I haven't been nearly as aggressive as previous live tournaments since the table was much better at poker, but i have had quite a few hands so i look pretty aggro. I've cold called scotty a couple times before, as well as numerous other players, so i think he gives me credit for a pretty wide range.

Scotty is actually playing kind of tight to start off with, but has accumulated some chips when he does play. His pre flop play seems a bit loose/weak but his post flop play pretty aggro. Scotty has not min raised pre yet.

As far as the other two players in the hand, MP3 was a middle aged Asian guy who was SUPER straight forward post flop. The SB was a middle aged Australian guy who was pretty bad and if he checked twice never ever had it.

Blinds 100/200
My stack: ~13.5k
Scotty: ~15k

I hold T [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in MP2.

Preflop: 2 folds, Scotty raises to 400, 1 fold, i call, MP3 calls, folds to SB, SB calls (BB has not shown up yet.) BB folds.

Flop: 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
SB checks, Scotty checks, i check, MP3 checks.

Turn: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
SB checks, Scotty takes a quick look around then bets 1600.

I'm pretty confident on a flop like that there's no one pair hand Scotty ever checks, and if he's good he shouldn't be checking two pair/sets there either. I think he might have a draw or just sense weakness and be firing.

I call, MP3 folds, SB folds.

River: T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Scotty checks. I think about 5 seconds and bet 3000. Scotty thinks about 3 seconds and check min raises to 6000. I?
