Default Heads-up NL vs a gambler

I was playing at a home poker game with about 8 friends. The game ended and then one of my buddies wanted to play me heads-up for $5. We agreed to play with 50 chips and blinds of 1/2. The blinds are a bit high, but it is heads-up. We played several matches. This guy was a real gambler and sometimes he would bet 10 chips without even looking at his cards. 1 or 2 times he would go all-in without seeing his cards.

I have a few questions. I am wondering what strategy I should use against my friend. There were several times where he would raise 10 chips, I would raise him all-in with a K6o and he would call me with some random hand. Is a kxo a strong enough hand to move all-in heads up? Assuming the other player could be holding any random hand? I assumed it was. What about Qx, keep in mind that he will most likely call me regardless of what he has, he just wants to see what I have.

The meat of my question is about the probabilites of Kx and Qx heads-up against a random hand.

Cheers,
Pots
