Since he's on a twitch stream he knows people are watching him play, so for example he would not do something like instantly fold KK preflop when an opponent has AA (the only possible better hand) - if he did that it would be extremely obvious he magically knew another player had AA. Instead he'll make a small raise as expected, then when the player with AA raises he'll act like its a really difficult decision for him then throw his cards away.
The problem is that you need to be fairly competent at poker
The moment you know he's throwing away a pair of kings that still sounds like obvious cheating to me. If I was a cheating man I'd try to not let it affect my "positive" play at all, the strong hands I get I have to play like I would anyway. Maybe you could selectively slow play your hand to limit the pot size and hope an ace or straight/flush draw gives you an excuse to back down, but otherwise I'd have to eat the loss. My main game would be trying to steal extra pots when the opponent also doesn't have muc
So, to build a better cheat: why not build an automated system that actually feeds him bogus information some percentage of the time, to let him fully maximize his play, but keep the winnings statistically in check?
