Default Re: $22 HU Did I wildly overplay Top pair?

98o is nearly even money against a random hand. I'm not in love with the PF raise, but don't mind it too much. It really depends on how often you've been raising and whether you've been able to get the villian to fold PF.

How often has the villian reraised you PF? You've got pot odds to call, but I'm not in love with playing 20% of my stack with 98o.

If villian's PF reraise is rare, I'd be tempted to either check the flop or bet closer to half the pot, say 750 instead of 1000, so that you have a better chance of seeing a showdown cheaply.
