It looks like a kind of strange line, fits 66, 33, 87, T9. This looks like a legit hand, even if it were a busted flush draw what diamond cards are left that wouldn't hit this board. He could be bluffing KT or something sometimes sure, but eh. I'd fold it 1st hand

Yeah I would fold pretty quickly, if only for the reason that very few people seem capable of carrying out multi-street bluffs on the first hand of a HU match.

since you know nothing about him, his hand range is huge.

also, if he wins a big pot on the first hand that could change the whole dynamic of the match--so if you're just guessing, that's another reason to fold.
