Default Handling Loose Passives Heads Up

Suppose you have a heads up opponent (like I did last nite), who calls virtually all raises preflop (e.g., with 10, 5 offsuit), and calls almost every turn whether he hits or not. What are the hands you would come in with a raise?

Also, this opponent almost never raises preflop. Given that, what hands do you complete your small blind with?

Thanks!

you need to value bet against this guy, complete with almost any 2 and raise hands that have preflop value against a random hand. pretty straightforward. if the guy continues to play like this youll make a fortune off him. just pray that everyone folds to your SB every time.

There are no other players--just one-on-one.

Which hands have preflop value against random hands?

Thanks!

If you're completing for 1/2 of a small bet, I think all of them.
