Why not raise 7th since he's repping 77 on the early streets with a possible worse 2 pair on 7th. KK in the hole is such a small part of his range -- don't you think you're missing value here?

Can you explain why a bet/fold is better than a check/call here? He doesn't have to have the flush and you have reasonable showdown hand for half in a relatively big pot.
It seems like ceegee is playing very agro throughout and you are folding a lot on later streets. Wouldn't you prefer to showdown lighter against such an opponent? It seems so exploitable when you fold so much on the later streets (particularly it seemed in O8). Would be interesting to see one of these with both sets of hole cards exposed.

No. I think there is too much value in a showdown, dont forget he has A77, and can make Ks-up as well, which are the only hands he'll call me with.

Agreed. I would check-call normally and should have, tough to make a HU-multi-game vid and play A+ game, but I think I'm doing better than I thought I would honestly.

We only played about 100 hands, I'm sure variance had more to do with this than anything.

It would work if I wasn't coached by the two best LHE players in the world OTR and BBB imo

The raise is to rep a 4 flush with a low or maybe two pair and you don't always have a hand here yet so it gives me some added fold equity, plus if you only have one pair I am freerolling you

Gotta be aggro HU imo, if you play too passively you will give up too much value even with the small antes because I know you fold a bunch and aren't aggro so I have to be aggro

Why don't you raise your pair of 8s here? Do you really give me that much credit for 9s+ in the hole? Even if I do im not 3 betting and you can take a free card on 6th if you like. The ace in the hole is a perfect opportunity for this especially if you are calling down. Anything you catch will allow you to bet for value or you can take the free card.
On 7th just raise 7th I mean the pot is big enough that I'm not really folding and you could be bluffing a missed flush draw which makes me call light on the river

I only had the nut low here. JT shoulda check called imo

I did it because you're line didn't make sense so I figured I could knock you off some weak hand as you folded to my last river raise
