Default Re: New heads up poker game - best strategy?

It would take me a while to rigorously pick an opinion, but intuitively I think Jim has an edge in this game. Jim gets to bully you to a ridiculous extent... if he's 35% to win a pot it's +EV for him to be allin. If you bet the pot (that is, the amount of your stack you put in is equal to the pot) on the turn, he's being offered 4:1 on his money... you can't take him off of a real draw. Worse, if he's any better than a 2:1 dog he can just push his draw and actually want you to call.

If the stacks were a bit smaller it might be +EV for him to push blind every hand.
