min-min-pot-bettings

hi,im new hear but think thats ok 4 u ;)im playin the $10 and $21 regs on mansion.. also played 30s and 50s profitably in the past and only got crushed by badbeats against -10%ROIvictims on the 100s... So my question ,cause i had it twice today: What do u think of players using minbets on flop/turn to play potsize on the river as a standard line??? Unfortunatly I always had to fold the river cause i only had BP or busted Draws so i couldnt find out myself!thx for helpin and vidsLXwho P.S. why i only can post here? cause i only got standard membership?`ive tried to post it in general-pokerdiscussion-forum!

At the very low stakes I find

At the very low stakes I find that often can mean a monster.  Bad players don't know about how to extract max value with their best hands so I have seen this line often and usually follow it.  About the only line I find useful when you think they are bluffing and or weak is to raise the turn.  If you do that though watch out for cr on river if they do have a monster.

I tend to just call while

I tend to just call while blinds are still small, if I have any sort of EV that is. Once blinds get higher, they're definitely not getting away with "gaybets" ;)

Well, I usually try to figure

Well, I usually try to figure out what they're doing that with early in the match.If they use this line more than twice, then I calldown with any decent hand, try to get to the river cheaply with any draw and raise the flop and/or turn if I have complete air.  Doing that early in the match won't cost you too many chips and you get some idea what they're doing.

You usually are getting odds

You usually are getting odds to call with pretty much anything, I'd play it a little conservative and avoid raising thin without knowing what these bets mean, they may mean a weak hand or they may be an attempt to trap, try to get to showdown cheaply unless you have a hand that you'd normally be looking to pump the pot up and then depending on what he's doing this with you can adjust.
