$5 Heads Up SNG

[mikeneron]

I apologize for the long post. I have a lot of trouble playing opponents like this guy...loose, agggressive, wild, etc etc. I had a nice chip lead early on, but he was able to comeback and once the blinds got up a bit he went into all-in mode. Of course I like to just wait out these type of players out and let them hang themselves, but the cards just weren't in my favor. When I finally had to make my stand, it just didn't work out. Anything you can see about the way I played this? It gets frustrating to play against these guys, they don't know much about poker, but enough to be dangerous, lol.

Looks like your post got cutoff (unless I'm too early responding).

Hand 41 hurt you. You flopped top pair but let him control the betting and run into a flush. You needed to reraise the flop hard.

Other than that it seems you let him complete too often, and tried to complete too often. That then let him raise you from BB so you were calling the PF raise with nothing a lot.

Other than 41 though you seemed to be playing well, but it seems he started reading your play. Perhaps mix things up a bit more.

You are right, it did get cut off...here is the rest.

Wow, I see what you mean about the end.

Then again, everytime you completed, he raised AI. The two times you raised from SB he folded one and went AI on the other with a somewhat reasonable hand.

So again, you were trying to complete too often, giving him control. Maybe mix it up with some folding and some raising, with only a few completions. He pretty much took you from a chip lead to desperate by taking over the betting and you let him. I'm not saying you should have called his AIs, but you gave him the opportunity to go AI by showing weakness with your completions (especially since you often check/folded the flop in earlier completions, so he could feel confident you had nothing).
