Whoops totally misread the hand.

looks to me like villian could have easily filled up here himself

No way. &gt;90% he has a straight on the turn and he couldn't have filled up with a K/8 in his hand. Problem is he probably doesn't want to fold it. I don't know.. marginal spot.

you dont think a straight raises this turn?

Not if he fears AK


Kratz, you've got bigger ones than me to break this out first hand of HU.

1st hand is usually a bad spot to run a big bluff. i think people are more averse of small losses when they start a session so the likelihood of getting called is bigger here.

I just don't think it's worth it, im giving up on riv.

I'd like it more if it was done on an actual heads up table.

[DJ Sensei]

dont like it too much but its not awful. yes he's likely to fold here, but it costs you a ton when he doesnt. if he's a weak-tight player in general, then alright, but otherwise, meh.
