I don't like minraising SB vs BB. As I see in some videos here, everyone steals at least 2,5x, but mostly 3x. I think that opponents do realise in some extent that they should defend more against a minraise, making your life more difficult preflop and postflop. I personaly switched from 2,3x to 3x and I my experience is that 3x is much better. As this player is concerned, he is folding way too much BB vs SB, which means that he has a tighter range when do defend, so I would exclude most suited connectors from his calling range.

Cbetting the flop and turn is fine. His raise on the turn doesn't have much sense because I believe he would raise sets on the flop, so I think calling is fine. But, on the other hand, he also can't have that many draws. He would probably raise the spade flushdraw on the flop, I would imagine. I also don't see many diamond flushdraws on the turn that he can have. So, I would be carefull on the river. I think I would rather check/fold. He doesn't seem like a player who would barrel busted draws on the river often.

I think on turn we must fold after the raise.
I cannot define range for the river but I feel it would be something extraordinary. :)

44. K4 or 64 :)

My assumptions were close to Alleen86's. I ruled out 66, 99 and Kx, because he is strait forward enough to raise them on flop. 44 is also folding flop. So It was some :diamond: FD or:spade: FD, but he would raise part of spade FDs on flop. So I decided to call turn and x/c evry different from :diamond: or A river. If :spade: appears I would re-evaluate.
He appeared with J♠8 :spade:.

Also have one question. As I really suck in the taking of notes - do you make some not on him in this case?

It is mandatory to write a note on this one.

What note would you take? The problem is that I'm typing very slow:)

You can write that he plays his weak FD aggressively. Or that he call F, raise T, bet R with weak FD.
