Stars $109 HU hand.
Stars $109 HU with P0ker D0h. He had been aggressive the entire final table so I had to widen his hand range going into heads up. This hand happened with me having 40bbs plus ante's. So I'm effectively 35bbs deep. He had me covered.

My original thought to the flop was that with 35bbs and an aggressive opponent I would be willing to get it all in here with top pair. I assume he allways bets here when checked to therefore I decided the most aggressive route would be a check raise with the intention of calling a shove. Anyway he just calls the check raise and we go to the turn.

Re: Stars $109 HU hand.
Check-call is best at this point, I don't think you can get away, so this gives him a chance to bluff at the flush if he had some other draw (98?) and keeps his range as wide as possible.
But against an aggro opponent leading flop is much better than c/r'ing. Let him raise with air or draw and then you can 3-bet him. Your leading range should be much wider than your c/r range, which means he can play back at it with a much wider range. You have a good hand but you are over-repping it and allowing him to fold a lot of the stuff you want in but continue with stuff that has good equity.
