Normally there is a 4-bet cap (some sites have 5-bet caps, some don't have a cap HU on the river, but the major sites have 4-bet caps) so the most you can lose is 4SB PF and on the flop which = 4BB and another 4BB on the turn and river. So in total 12BB.
Note: BB=Big Bets and not big blinds.

since rivers that start heads up have an unlimited # of raises heads up the answer is infinity or your entire table stake which ever is less.
on line its 12 big bets

you got some solid advice, btw always check out the room rules, because either online or live they can change from place to place
