Firstly, and this is really important to note, if you have a "decent drawing hand" then you really don't want to be getting heads up. You see, "decent drawing hands" quite like having several callers, since their nut flush draw and straight draws aren't hurt by more callers, in fact they help nicely.
Secondly, and this is most important, he doesn't have a decent drawing hand at all. At PLO $200, nobody ever, and I repeat, ever folds a nut flush draw no matter how much you bet. And here is the really sucky part about it, for for the first time in his life, the guy who can't fold his nut flush draw, well he has you by the balls. You're the dog, god how sucky does that look?
