And you only need to be worried if the old nits are exploiting you. I'm folding to the min-raise all the time when it comes from an OMC. When someone waiting for a 500NL seat does it, it's not a b/insta-f anymore. We're not saying to b/f against the entire player pool.
Not to derail the thread, but I'm not saying B/F should be rare
for us; I'm saying it's a lot less common at LLSNL in general than it should be. I probably use the B/F line about half as often as I should, yet I can't remember the last live session where I
didn't use it more than anyone else at my table.
And B/Fing to a min-raise is, well, really rare. Rare enough that it might get noticed. Not by the nits (I don't care about OMC, he's never going to bluff-raise me out of pots anyway), but by the 2-3 thinking players at the table, whom I definitely don't want to start thinking they can bluff-raise me more when IP.
Yes, I'm probably overthinking this, but in general I'll go out of my way to avoid "odd" plays like this even when they carry some small immediate EV cost.
OK, thread hijack over.
