Default Heads up big draw

My opponent has definitely loosened up a lot since we were more handed, but I'm still not convinced he's pure bluffing. He was very tight earlier in the tournament. I expect him to have at least one pair after he bets the turn.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (2 handed) converter

Hero (t7567)
BB (t5933)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t500</font>, BB calls t300.

Flop: (t1000) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets t600</font>, Hero calls t600.

Turn: (t2200) 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets t800</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t6467</font>,

I push the flop. HU I am a big fan of the semi-bluff, I like to make them show me something. If they got something, you got outs. On the turn, the same concept applies, but now you've only got one shot at catching.

Would you lay down an 8 on the flop to a push? What about the turn? Be honest.

Its a tough call to make with the 8. I like putting people in tough spots. Maybe he lays down the best hand, maybe he calls and you catch your flush.
I like your line, I just tend to make the move on the flop rather than the turn.

Did you realize I caught an OESD on the turn?

Results: He called with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], the river is a 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and MHIG.

I guess this push is so standard no one cares [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
