I'd look you up on that one too. First level of a heads up. Want to see if opp is slowplaying me, or being a donk and trying to buy the pot on the river.

Look at the hand. You called and didn't raise preflop. For most people that means you don't have an A or K. You don't raise the flop for value. You don't raise the turn when the Q's pair, and then you bet the river for only 40.

Yup, he's definately buying information in this spot. Good players do it when you price them in heads up. Think about it. When you're at a full ring you can see people showdown all day when you're not in the pot, and make reads. You don't have that luxury heads up. You take what you can get.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.
