We were 2 tabling and early in the session I made 2 smallish mistakes.
1) I got it in light on flop and runner-runner'd a fullhouse vs his flopped nuts. (where I shouldve just called & got it in on turn)
2) where I shouldve bluffraised the turn instead of double float (with air) and hit a pair on the river so checked down my SD value and was good vs his missed draw.
he was like "wtf? are you drunk?".
So after those 2 hands, and me failing a check/shove on a T8Xs board with QJ in a 3bet pot (he had been 3Betting a lot as was I), he took me for a huge spazz/aggro fish and played accordingly during the whole session always complaining about how lucky I was.
Which means he was barreling high cards, check/folding bricks, checking back flops for potcontrol with 2nd pair (and then betting turn with 2nd P good kicker) and worse made hands, cbetting all his air and TP+ hands, rarely if ever bluffraising turn or river and always valuebetting TP+ on river while check/calling weaker hands.
He also had glaring betsizing tells, mainly cause he didnt see me as a thinking player who could read hands, let alone betsize!
He would for example bet <2/3 pot on river whenever he was valuebetting "thin" (in his mind), and rarely bet pot or more with less than very strongish hand.
Which means I adjusted by overbet bluffing turn + river early in the match after he checked back flop & then once he hero called one, I started overbetting for value with TP+ and in some hands even second pair AND I also found some very easy herocalls on river in spots where he either checked back flop or turn and then only repped a rivered 2pair+ (without TP or second pair in it) or a bluff on the river with a big bet.
all of this obviously reinforced his belief that I was a huge spazzy/fishy that was just running very good.
