if you saw how this guy was playing, and the previous history we had, the question would be more like "how do you NOT know hes bluffing"

i had pushed him out of 3 pots so far with a flop cbet. on the flop, he cant have a pair because he didnt raise preflop, thats just how weak he played. plus, he didnt raise the flop. could he have a 7? maybe, but i got a weird feeling with the way he paused, then called the flop, then instabet the turn as soon as i checked. it was as though he was like "ok, this time, he cant have any-LOOK HE CHECKED THE TURN I BET"

the T was a bad card for me as he could have easaily had like JT or something, but i felt he was bluffing most of the time here.


i honestly think im playing the best MTT poker of my life right now, if thats any consolation. if i could get some cards to hold up i would be taking some stuff down. just had a small score on UB last week, 2nd in a 30r, and thats it. but i know wins are going to start coming in. this call felt so natural for me, as did the others in this forum. its just so obvious when weak players are bluffing. middle stakes mtt players are so noncreative, and so ABC, once you determine who is the ABC and who is the loose idiots, you can build a huge stack just making sensible plays knowing your image and how weak players view you.
