    Just suffered a bad beat in heads up with mates. I can always get a generous size of the pot, (this case the most) but when two of us are left, i loose.

    What is the best stretegy for heads up when your ahead?


    and how to counter the (forget his name) move in the WPT where he jus kept going all in with nothing just trying to double up.

    Just call him with any A, any K, any pocket pair, any two face cards, although if you have a monster chip lead you should probably call him with any 2. It's all relevant though, we need to know more details, like if you give an e.g. with the size of blinds and relevant stack sizes then you might get more replies.

    main factor is the size of the blind relative to your/his stack.
    the bigger the blinds the looser u have to play.

    In work so quick answer :p

    It depends how far ahead you are (these are for defense against an all-in and assuming that the SB&BB are at least 3% of the chips in play. If you are more deepstacked then you will play different).
    95%+ you can defend with any 2.
    85%+ you can defend with anything except complete dirt.
    70%+ QTo+, K5s+, K8o+ Ax, 22+.
    60%+ QJs, KTs+, A7s+, ATo+, 22+
    50%+ AKo KQs, ATs+,66+

    Only a guide and a lot 'depends' as they say.
