Epic 31 Hand HU battle in 45 MTT, this is hand 30, so I have some really good reads. This may seems hyper aggro, but one of my reads is the flop min-raise. If they had a made hand, they would have flatted, or pushed a lot harder if fearful of the fl draw, so I actually put them on the OESD. I have that and the fl draw covered, so I went for it. didn't expect a call, but when they did, I had a slight 'oops' moment, until I saw the cards. Needless to say, they were crippled.

My friends use to say i am too tight because i always imagine the oponents with one of the best hands possible after flop. I agree with you analysing after flop reaction of es1975. You were the one who was trying to win. If he wanted too, he had to do one of two: went all in, and then you would think he was robbing you but could also put him in a KT situation and perhaps you would fold; or, he should just call after flop, so you still dont know what he has (nothing or straight going slow play). Mini raises at this time just showed leak of strenght. You could have lost this hand if river give a T, but, in my opinion, you would have played very well in the same!

I've been accused of that, in a nice way. Can't be that way headsup, especially after playing a 45 MTT and being on the final tbl the whole time with es1975. With a straight up HU match, you kinda have play a little to get a read on your opponent.

That would have been a pisser, though I do have a T in my hand, so less likely to hit...
