The reason this hand is posted is its been such a long time since ive played a even stack HU game. This was the second game against this oppoenent. Played a little to tight the first one but los because of it and managed to gain a strong read that he was very loose and hyper aggressive. So when offered a re-match i thought woohoo.

I manaed to take an early chip lead and then with only a small one came up. The raise by my opponent pre was pretty standard, i was giving up alot of my BB to a min raise in the previous game so i thought im re-popping, thought this maybe signaled a big hand and when he called i knew i had to hit.

Which of coarse i did and i bet out, the re-raise was really scary in my opinion, im never folding it, but i paniced for a second and thought much like Matt Damon in rounders, put him to the test, expecting him to shove and then be commited to calling anyways.

I checked the turn trying to enduce it, in all fairness i named JQ as what i had him on by the check on the turn, I knew now he didnt have JJ or 55. He didnt and the Q came on the river, so thought id place the final bet out. Ok i named the wrong two pair, but what you guys think.
