Default What Should I do Heads Up here:

My opponent is trying out a strategy that he has openly told me what he is doing. Heads up he has a 5.5 to 1 chip lead of 275 chips (all dominations the same) to 50 chips. Blinds are 1/2. I HAVE THE BUTTON EVERY HAND.

He is going all in every hand with any connectors, and suited cards, any pair, and any hand 10 high or better. Given that he is moving all in pretty much every single hand, only folding or checking about 1/5-1/7 hands, what restrictions are there on calling his all ins? Only Ace high, or pairs?

If I win the tournament I make $55.00.
If he wins he wins $10.00.

Seeing he has a large chip advantage on you, you should adopt a similar strategy to him. Call with hands J10+, any ace and K5+. Like 90% of the time its gonna be a coin flip and find its player with high card that wins.

From what he has said to you he is basically all-in with ATC as soon as you get your A, K or even Q, call.

1/2 blinds? I'd just wait for 99+ and call with those.

[/ QUOTE ]

Heads up the button is the SB and acts first preflop and last postflop. I only bring this up because this is basically a math problem and it's going to be important knowing if you're paying $1 or $2 every hand.

I assume you meant that he has the button every hand but you might want to clarify if you hope to get good responses.
