how do you alter headsup play against a tight Heads up player?
Do you go all in more or less often when you think your opponent is not playing aggresively enough heads up?
Is K2 an obvious or borderline push here? It's a party 55$. He had K8 and won the hand.

I think the best strategy against a tight player depends on how he plays against min-raises. If he treats them the same as all-ins, then min-raise away! However I suspect most players at the $55s are hip to that kind of trick and will re-steal.

If villain treats mini-raises like allins, then this is the absolute best strategy.

Re: how do you alter headsup play against a tight Heads up player?
agreed on the mini raise
also if hes tight passive you could try limping in, then betting 500-800 when he checks to you on the flop. You'll take down a 1,000 and risk less that way too. Obviously a good player will raise you off of your hand though if you try to limp in though.

Re: how do you alter headsup play against a tight Heads up player?
What I do is once it is heads up, I figure out what he is doing then I use it to my advantage ? Well duh, but what I mean is that I raise with QTo to 3x blind or something to see what he does, if he folds, I'm running all over him with nearly any two even 86 o which is my lucky hand lately. If he calls, then I might need a better hand to push with but I'm still going to try to run over him but just be a bit more strategic about it.
