[Mihej 0]

I have question abou playing heads up against tight player,who like to slowplay.I have read that it is recommended to be agressive against these types of players.i tried to do so,i won some pots by bluffing and agressivness.but as blinds' level grows i continue to be agressive-for example raise preflop-my opponent calls,then i bet flop-and he reraises-i know now that he has smth.,maybe even he has monster,so i fold.but i lose all or almost all of my advantage i gained by winning smaller pots.so it now becames harder to bluff or be agressive.which tips can you give me about play against these type of player?

Given the mention of increasing blinds, you might want to ask in the tourney section, as they'll have a better answer about how to deal with this as the blinds increase.In general, if your re-raise gets smooth called pre-flop, don't bet with air on the flop -- you're just throwing away money. Also, habitually re-raising a tight player pre-flop isn't the best strategy, as they usually have strong opening requirements to begin with. It would be ok to raise their limps and throw in the occasional re-raise though.What you want is a hand that plays well after the flop that you can stack them (or double up in a tourney). So, look to call his raises with pocket pairs and suited connectors, and then hope to hit the flop hard when he has an overpair.

I once played a guy who folded everything except when he had an ace, every single raise i made he folded unless he had something.he typed in "haha, you keep betting and i keep folding, but its great cuz you'l call my strong hands".little did he know, whenever i'd lose a pot to him i made it back in blinds afew hands later, and eventually i would hit a few big hands when he finally called, u just gotta keep being agressive.playiong Tight heads up is a disaster

I would agree however there's a difference between tight and trappy HU. I played HU last week in a tourney against a maniac and knew that if I picked up a big hand and played it trappy he would eventually do something silly. So I literally limped every hand in the SB to setup when I would eventually pick up my big hand (blinds were low enough relative to chip stacks to wait it out a bit) and I would occasionally steal if he started to get a little too stealy on me. However I finally picked up a big hand AA in the SB limped yet again and he moved on me with A/4 when he had about a 3-2 chip lead. Cake walk from there. Sometimes if your opponent is overly silly agg. HU and is liable to keep moving in because of an unwillingness to play HU flops I think a tighter/trappy strat can be good provided the circumstances (chip disparity/blinds relevance) permits it.
