Shallow stacked with draw, fast paced heads up v passive opponent.
The guy has donk min bet, min continuation bet, and min bet when ive checked to him out of position.
More often than not, he has called my raise, and very rarely 3 bet.
The above is only over 1 game - ten minutes, so not concrete.

A call leaves me with 500 (10xbb and a 3-1 chip disadvantage)
I flat the turn, and face a 50 bet on the river - knowing I have no fold equity if he has any pair.....
Does this make my flop raise dubious? - I shud be waiting to hit then take these guys to value town right?
lol not copying i didnt see tommy's post as playing sit n go so only 1 response when i went to reply
Ive raised pre flop, Ive re raised the flop, by shoving turn, my hand is consistant.
Y wud I slow down the turn with a big hand, when theres so many draws?
Shoving the turn gives 2 ways to win the hand - and makes my hand look stronger than it wud shoving the river when it comes a blank
"More often than not, he has called my raise, and very rarely 3 bet."
he is bad and doesnt care what you are repping he is playing the two cards infront of him.
"shoving the turn gives me two ways to win"
what if one of these ways works under 5% of the time? and the other is about 25% of the time
This is all relatively new to me, and Im trying to suss it out as I go along.
Totally different to 6 max obv.
Im finding im up early doors, first few levels, but im tentative when we get to the 15xbb stage, maybe I need to widen my calling and 3-bet shove range.
I lost 8 in a row earlier (alot were sick) - but had 2-1 chip lead in many of them......
Im sure theres a way to beat these games.
13-8 to baddies atm - including losing 8 in a row. sick lol
RE. The above hand, my hands are tied then? - any advice generally facing passive oppos HU with shallow stacks and a fast clock?

like i said, 50-100 buyins /> 20 buyins
