HU Hand in Double Shootout

[yecul]

Stars WSOP Qualifier last night. $160 entry, 81 players, winner from each table advances to final to go for the seat.

Down to HU. Opponent is pretty tight/passive. Been aggressive and stealing plenty of blinds and pots. He has done this min-reraise thing and dropped before. PF he would bet/raise with hands or drop out, not much flat calling.

Seat 6: Villain (6100 in chips)
Seat 7: Hero (7400 in chips)
Hero: posts small blind 75
Villain: posts big blind 150
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to Hero [Ac Tc]
Hero: raises 275 to 425
Villain: calls 275
*** FLOP *** [6d Jc Ah]
Villain: checks
Hero: bets 550
Villain: raises 550 to 1100
Hero...

Results: <font color="white"> I push, he calls and shows JJ. His set takes me down. Now it's 1300 vs 12000 or so. I battle back again and again and, on the last hand, am maybe 10% short of him. Get all-in with A7 vs A2 and he snaps the 2. Ends up finishing second at the final table, though it was mainly b/c others were doing the playing and he would sit back and wait. Ended up getting blinded off HU as he surrendered every pot. </font>

i would call and plan on pushing the turn.

pushing the flop is a mistake here. there are no draws you are afraid of, so if you think you are ahead, then you should call here and let him bluff more chips off to you on the turn.

Yeah, now you tell me. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Seriously, I regretted it right away.
