I've been playing a lot of heads up lately, and in that game, at least at low stakes, there are a lot of villains who think that the first one to get all in will win the pot, and they are often right.
$68 stacks. Villain steals from button 65%, c-bets 85%, and 2 barrels 65%. I'm bb with K
9
.
Villain opens from the button for $1.50. I call
Flop: 9
7
3
. I check, villain bets $2. I call.
Turn: J
. I check, villain bets $6. I raise to $21, thinking I can rep a made draw. Villain shoves. There are a lot of hands that beat me, but at the same time, villain could be doing this with a lot of draws that I am ahead of. Also, at low stakes heads up, I find a fair number of donks who take the line that, "I already bet this twice. If you want this pot you're gonna have to call a shove." From my experience in ring games, there aren't many players who play like that, but it's been a year and a half since I played ring games, so idk...
I folded, but I have my suspicions he'd shove atc there.
