Default HU against crazy raiser.

The game is HU limit holdem.
Lets assume a player raise every time you limp on the button,but if you raise he plays well from that point.What would be the best strategy for the button?

You should think about limp re-raising for value . Since he is raising with any two cards , you can value raise at least 50 % of the hands on the button since you do have position .

ie , k-7 may be worth a limp re-raise otb against this type of opponent . Moreover , this is a value raise if you can play well postflop .

K7 is a perfect hand for limp-reraise for value,since it is in top 30% of all hands.But how low would you go with limp- reraise.
(K2s,Q5s,K4,J9) are in top 40%
(Q2s,J5s,K2,J8) are in top 50%
Is there any hands you would prefer to limp/call(against what kind of opponents)
Also what hands need to be folded.

never limp, raise about 70-80%, unless he 3bets a lot, then you can tighten up.

and almost always c-bet the flop. This button strategy has worked well for me against most opponents, even very aggressive ones
