the thing is, folding leaves you with 10k, which is plenty (M~ 7). i guess you should have folded if you think you're a better player, and called if you thought you were going to be outplayed by him in the headsup match. |
Man, I need to find a copy of HOH2.
Considering my chances against him was a factor, and I'm sure the fact that is was getting late also helped push me into a call. The last time he and I were heads up, he ran me over. That was my wake up call to revamp my heads up game. I would say we're closer to even now. In that case, it just adds another coin flip factor in.
I guess I'm OK with my call. Like you said A9s is a pretty big hand HU. I think if I had taken more time to think though, I might have realized I was pretty likely to be a dog going in.
