Villain pushes

This guy had been min-raising every button and CBing every flop. He also called any preflop raise anyone made. We're about three hands into heads up.

I would actually have pushed preflop. You have to call this flop.

edit: my original post looks like i'm advocating a fold or whatever, i don't think this is a push pre-flop. in addition I think you call villain's push.

Your posts crack me up.

if by "sng" you're implying he's pushing any flop (ignoring the FE PF)...meh, could be. with him calling any PF raise, it's reasonable to assume he simply has a piece - putting you on a couple "big cards".

...like this guy, i could fold, living to fight some more. you still have enough chips where a single double-up puts you back in the hunt.

fwiw, i'd push this PF if he's willing to gamble w/Kx (where x<7). a "standard" raise at these blinds, with his stack, is just too cheap - where a likely couple of overcards makes it difficult for you to proceed. with 13bb's, it's time to maximize your FE PF with a hand as vulnerable as 77.

And yeah I know you have >10bb but it's about 13 and HU this is close enough for me.

PS:You need lots and lots of poker skills to put ure chips on the middle on any flop...what poker can u play with 13x the BB HU??LOL.
