Do you think I played this hand too agressive heads up?
I dont think I would have pushed here but the last couple of times I got heads up the blinds eventually increased up to 1,000 -2,000 at which point the skill factor goes completley out the window.
Thanks for your input

The skill factor is out the window long before 1000-2000.

With these stack sizes and blinds you should be pushing WAY more than stuff like 88. Raise allin most hands. Just fold the occasional horrible hand to try and give your opponent the impression you're capable of folding and are just getting dealt constant great hands.

Edit: Just noticed your opponent raised first. That doesn't matter, 88 is still a clear push. How did your opponent manage to raise to 850? That should be an underraise?

Never too aggressive heads up! /images/graemlins/wink.gif Especially w/ 88.
