Re: Playing heads-up with a very lucky make allin bet every hand?
Well, you have to make a stand with something, but 89s was not the hand to do it with, since it's an underdog to an average hand.
How many hands you should call is dependent on how big the stack sizes are. Assuming you've got no more than 20 BBs (which you probably did heads up at the final table), and he's really pushing *every single hand* you should be calling at least any pair higher than 77, and say ATo and up and KQ (I think that's a reasonable range to call 20 BBs with against 2 random cards; it's possible you should be even looser than that, but I think you are going to definitely want to fold close decisions since you *know* he's going to be making EV mistakes pretty much every hand. The smaller your stacks are relative to the blinds, the more you'll want to increase this range, adding more pairs, more aces, and broadway cards.
