 End of a $11 1-table, looong HU session. Villain is very tight HU, likes to slowplay and trap. I folded a few trash hands from the button, mostly after pushing several in a row, should I have just kept on pushing?


---Tournament Summary---
$11 SNG: Finished 1/10 for $50
Data for 37 hands.
You played 19 hands (51.35%)
You raised 14 times preflop (37.84%)

 Effective stacks are almost 20 bbs deep which means you really don't have to be pushing all-in every hand just yet.

Villain is very tight HU
Given this, GMML is especially right, no need to open push yet when you have position - unless you fell opp is a lot better than you are, which if he's very tight HU isn't really possible.

Most of these pushes are terrible. You could raise 2.5 to 3 times the big blind with the exact same effect. With stacks this deep, there's also nothing wrong with limping on the button and seeing flops.

 Thanks guys, another piece in the puzzle. Sounds like I should go back to how I used to play HU before. I have to admit I felt I'm pushing too much, but had the gear stuck from the bubble/ITM with a shorter stack.

Also happy to report in the past 6 games I've finished 1st twice, 2nd once and 3rd once! Guess I'm back on the upswing, hope I don't come crashing down soon.

QFT, you should be taking down small pots from this guy and avoiding big confrontations without at least a strong draw or top pair.

I gotcha...yea you've kind of put him into the mindset that he's probably going to wait for pocket pairs or AJ+ until he calls you...at least that's my impression which kinda stinks because your kings went wasted.
