LOLOL. This is just bad. By that logic, we can just say that -a LOT- of live players find excuses to spew too and should give them 100% weight for random air. That's just not how sound logical thinking plays out. We could also say that -a LOT- of live players find reasons to slow play hands they shouldn't in other spots. It's a circular argument that has no basic foundation in which to compare it to.
Making live reads is literally the same. If you "think" or "read" a player is playing a certain way, you are literally superimposing that idea on the player and can bet just as wrong as anything else.
We also literally have a good portion of the game solved and a baseline of what "should" happen. Hence knowing what is, and isn't an exploit or a deviation of "should." I'm not superimposing my personal ideas, I'm super imposing the partial solve/sims we have.....and then deciding if villain is likely deviating.
You're making a huge assumption that I'm superimposing some sort of emotion or feeling of how they should play. Just what the generally optimal line should be, and going from there.
But, moving on from terrible logic, what's your line here? Call/fold/raise?
