Message: [QUOTE="feitr, post: 782323, member: 34106"] Yea you are absolutely crazy. It would be a totally different story if he was the one OOP and he had called your cbet then fired on the river and you could have put him on a busted draw or something. But to call half your stack off with A high is absolutely idiotic. You would not stand a CHANCE vs a decent HU player playing like this because one hand and you are value betted out of the game. Ultimately it all comes down to the read you have of the player...so calling an ultra aggressive player down is not a bad idea WHEN YOU HAVE SOMEWHAT OF A HAND. Just fold this and find a better situation because in many cases you are just going from 2:1 to 1:2 here. The reason being ultra aggressive works in HU is precisely in situations like this. Because the villain probably bets all the time you never put him on a hand and are willing to call him down with a marginal (or total crap in this case) hand. And doing so is a HUGE HUGE mistake. There are times where it is not incorrect to lay down a better hand and this would be one of them. If you think he is full of shit, then c/r or lead out on the turn or something. NEVER EVER call somebody to the river in a situation like this where you don't have a hand. You don't have to lay down a hand every time you miss when you know there is a good chance he missed, but to call bets on each street with nothing is about the single worst thing you could ever do in HU. You play into an aggressive players hands if you are willing to pay them off when they actually hit a hand. Also i would pop this way up preflop. [/QUOTE]
