1'st vs. 2'nd place

I tend to end up 2'nd even if think my HU play isn't that bad.
Blinds are often big and often the best situation I can hope for is to get it AI in situations like this:

Hero A4o
Oponent KJo

And (so far) more often than not he catch his K or J and I loose. So far I'm in second place almost three times more often than first place. Anythin I can do to improve?

And another question. How good is 98s when it comes to calling a HU push from a trigger happy oponent?

Depending on how you two GOT AI it could be +EV for both of you.

It's nine high... So "bad" would be the correct answer.

But pushing with 98s isn't a bad idea if you're desperate....

Blinds of 200/400
Heads up
You have 89s

Your stack 1000
His 9000
He's all-in, so are you

Your stack 5000, his 5000
He's all-in, you fold
