You should play exactly the same as you would if you had 600 chips, and your opponent 7400. Heads in a tournament, play is identical to money play.

wait you'll call his push with any 2, but you won't push with any 2? explain why, please? [/ QUOTE ] Heh, I was typing up my response and realized my logic was flawed and made no sense at all. So just push with any 2. If he doubles up a couple of times, go back to normal HU play. |

If you lose HU with a huge chip lead, you are probably folding too much. Can you post a HH?

push push push. It's highly unlikely he'll double up every hand, thus making you the winner or making him fold in which case the blinds will take care of him. I have come back fom nothing HU because the other guy was folding. However i don't think i've lost in the opposite situation.

Thanks for all the advice! This only happens to me occasionally, so I guess that it's part of variance, since I do continue to play pretty aggressively when this situation comes up. I rarely fold, except maybe 23o.
When being heads up, I usually end up winning (more wins than 2nd places), but these 2 games in which it happened, just kind of bothered me! |

Villain shouldn't be folding a single hand (sometimes they will), but assuming Villain plays perfectly, you can't push 23o because you're only paying 1/2 a BB open-pushing, but a full BB when calling. |

[/ QUOTE ] so you're saying it's ok to call someone's push with any 2 but not push with those same cards? reverse gap? you are saying that if he pushes and u have 23o, then you have pot odds to call that, but if you push first, you don't have pot odds? if he calls you it's the same situation, but pushing first gives you FE...and him pushing puts him on a better-than-random hand...so why would you call with something that you wouldn't push with? |

Push Push Push but with a little discretion fold once in a while. Maybe 5 - 10% of your very worst hands. If he doubles up twice, I back off and start playing poker again.

If you open-fold 23o, Villain's stack becomes t750 after folding.
If you fold 23o after Villain pushes, Villain's stack becomes t900. Huge, huge difference. |
