$60-JJ heads up ( I threw up a little)

[sng-sam]

Push to the raise preflop? I wanted to but pussed out incase overcards came on flop. Becareful what you wish for.

Straight Flushes,

I push this HU (only playing $11s). Especially since he already put money in the flop. You really want to put all your chips in here ASAP and hope he calls with AK [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Yeah, I'm not sure how different HU play is at the $60's, but to me this would probably be a pf instapush.

I only play the $1.10's on UB so I may not be qualified to answer this...

Your OOP to act on flop so calling and being tricky here just seems dumb. I'd much rather be tricky with a hand that is not vunerable to overcards as JJ is. But honestly what do I know...

[StregaChess]

I'm pretty sure I'd push over top of his raise here, but not thrilled about it.

Or.. I might try to mix it up and confuse him by rasing it up to 4800, and pray that he folds.
(He may lay down AQ or even QQ, or he put you on AA and lay AK down?)

I'd also consider tossing the balance in on the flop if he calls....
(I assume you'll think this whole idea is stupid but.. that's my 2 cents..)

[MEJG2]

Was he raising normally or alot on the button? I probably just push preflop. Did he vary his raise size? 4x seems like he's not looking for action to me, unless that was his normal raise.

Maybe I'm too aggressive but I pf instapush just about any pocket pair here unless Villain has been completely predictable and passive without the goods.

Sam,

You're making life too hard.

Just push preflop with the best hand and hope it holds up.
