Default Re: Razz Heads Up

I prefer to let the other guy bet before I raise when I bring in a hand this good. He's going to bet nearly 100% of the time but only have a hand as good as yours like 20% of the time. Might as well get some money in there.

4th is fine

You are not a dog on 5th - it's even money. Whether you want to jam when you're probably 50/50 or not is up to you. (OK actually you're like a 51:49 favorite)

On 6th you're a 2:1 favorite, might as well raise it up.

Call is fine on 7th.

Personally I think you played the hand just fine.

One nice thing about heads up hands is that it's easy to evaluate them with a tool like propokertools.com or twodimes.net because there are no dead cards. If you are OK at estimating equity it's often helpful to think of worst and best cases for his down cards - and by worst I don't mean like KK, I mean the worst down cards that kind of fit his actions.

By 5th I think you have to expect he has 2 cards under 8 in the hole, probably 2 cards under 6. Obviously at best he has like A2. This should help you on 6th, because if he gets and 8 or 9 it probably did not pair him.
