Whenever they min raise like that with the blinds that high... they raise just enough to not pot-commit themselves... they always don't have anything. With a good hand like AA KK they would limp in fear of losing you, and with AK they would just go all in because AK is nothing if it's not paired (they want to see all cards at once) So, if you're the chip leader, just put them all in (if they're low on chips) This situation (or read) is only true with the type of chip-discrepency seen in this hand. You have to have a lot, and them little and the blinds big. Also, this read only works against experienced players because idiots might well min raise with a hand they want to go all in with.... Infrequenly, they say f^&9 it and call but 95% of the time they fold and it's a huge pot as with this hand. Also, if they call, they really start acting weird, they know you're unpredictable and crazy and are afraid of you... try it out
This was in a 55+5$ single table SITnGO
(it's not applicable for much lower stakes and may backfire at higher stakes but it's worth experimenting with) It works for me all the time
