Ok im seriously gonna review my HU plays with your help. I have too many 2nd place finishes.

Please provide some criticism on my plays.

Villian had been fairly quiet early on and the bubble didnt last to long to see him changes gears. He seemed to come alive tho HU been fairly agg.

I have tidied up the HH somewhat. Thanks

 i wish i got hands this good heads up. i glanced through all the hands and I didn't see any big mistakes of any kind. I might keep the raises at 3xbb because you want them to call when your on the button. in this situation, you might have been able to tone up the aggression postflop because this guy seemed pretty tight. from what i see, hes the type who is aggressive but will back down if theres any resistance.

I play the last hand the same as you. its good because your most likely 55-80% to win, given that he had been raising on the button most of the time. most of the time you'll just be getting a fold, and the times you get called, your probably in decent shape. the only bad part about this push that you basically told him you can't possibly have a big hand like JJ+

maybe re-raise to 2k and then pull a stop and go?

I think you definitely need to cbet more of these flops. I'm seeing all low card flops come, he raised preflop and you check the flop. Come out firing at him, put the decision on HIM. You'll win many pots this way. Raise = good cards. Low card flop = What you want

OK, I'll have a go at this. I think you played it a bit too passively. Maybe this is my own personal playing style but I would be raising preflop more frequently, particularly on the button when you have position for the rest of the hand. This not only gives you the chance to win your opp's blinds if he/she folds but also sets you up to throw out a c-bet on the flop if you miss.

I agree with fjuanl, keep your raises to 3x BB, you want SOME action with your big hands and if you throw out a c-bet it keeps the pot size under control.

105. I would make it 600 to go, opp might have folded preflop.

106. Raise preflop! K8o is a pretty good hand heads up (56% to win against a random hand)

110. Raise preflop! A9o is a strong hand heads up (61% to win against a random hand)

113. I would have bet the turn (say 3-400) after opp checked behind you on the flop.

116. Raise preflop! (~60% to win against a random hand)

120. I would have at least completed the SB here, if not raised preflop. Remember what was in HOH2 - if your opponent mostly doesn't raise you preflop if you complete the SB then you should complete with any two cards. Q2s isn't a terrible hand HU, it's definitely worth at least a call IMO.

 He was a lot more aggressive and usually in HU, aggression wins.
