playing $20 6 max fast NL on pacific has gotten me noticing this.

when heads up, most players tend to fall into this catagory, IMO pacific SNG players are disgustingly bad.

1) raise all in every hand
2) call every all in with every hand

how do you play against these opponents.

wait for a good hand and push. repeat.

depending on the blinds and the chip disparity this pushing every hand is probably not that far off the correct strategy.

I semi agree with Pat.

I basically push from the SB with half of my hands. and same goes for the BB if the SB completes or minraises.

I try to be a little sneaky on monsters based on how my opponent is playing.

The best strat for playing against a player that will push/call on any two is simple..

wait for a decent hand.. push... let luck decide the winner. As long as you arent pushing with garbage, and your opponent will really call with any 2 then you should win over 50% of your HUs.

agreed, however in Pacific fast tourneys, 6 players start with 800 chips each, and blinds increase every 6 hands. Heads up its usually at 150/300 blinds, wait 4 hands you are out 900 chips (or, almost 1/2 your stack).

things get a little wacky and heads up variance is huge.
