    After I had 8000 chips to his 2000 and CHOKE. He just continually moved all-in every hand and the best I could get was Q-8 offsuit. Anyway he comes back and has me just slightly covered.

    Knowing he's probably gonna move in AGAIN I pick up Ace, Jack and push.

    LOOOOOOOONG pause then... (in the chat box) "ouch"

    "cowboys"

    another pause....

    he calls and flips over KK. GG me.

    (chat box again) "man you blew a really big lead"
    " gg "

    The slowplay was really trashy, but ir really is your fault for letting him oush you around like that.

    Yeah that's a difficult situation. Say he pushes once, you have K-x.....probably not a good time...first push you've seen. Next hand he pushes again based on the last hand, you fold another less-than-marginal hand. He picks up on this and keeps pushing, and when you make a stand he actually has a hand. Just bad luck IMO. (Almost) Any face card (perhaps except J-low) after two pushes in a row I'm calling. After you get pushed around a couple times consecutively you get put into this trap (Heads up with the blinds high relative to stacks). This has happened to me quite a few times and i've learned from it---if the guy starts getting restless I have to loosen up my calls. This has improved my heads-up play.

    Nothing about the guy being an asshole is anyone's fault except the asshole. The thread wasn't about anything but an asshole.

    Nobody's looking for comments about the play just the player.
