As good as it is to start new NL10 tables and end up avoiding most of the regs, the downside is that you can end up playing HU against a fairly aggro / seemingly competent player for 10-15 mins.
Hadn't played huge volume, his default seemed to be to bet a decent size of the pot every time I showed any weakness. The only time I'd bet all 3 streets previously was when I hit a hand and it didn't go to showdown. I think we were about 50/50 on the hands I'd gone into c/c mode with and got to showdown.
Flop was a standard c-bet (although appreciate this sort of middling flop will always see me behind / getting called by draws and low pairs)
Turn I thought a) would hit my range and b) gave me the equity of a gutshot 10 which c) would be both disguised and also likely hit the sort of range that would call a 579 flop (T8/T9/T7/JT) and therefore may mean I get paid if I hit my hand
River.... I'd normally give this up, but that's because I'm normally playing full-ring and most of my oppos are passive stationy types who will definitely call me down here with pocket 2s.
But in the time we'd been playing I knew I'd face a bet if I checked I'd face a bet, regardless of whether oppo was ahead or not - and I'm 100% not good enough to hero with Q-high! Further, all flush draws missed and not many straight draws got there...
