HU is all situational until someone is short stacked. There is no way to answer such a general question.

I agree with what cop said, and a lot of times even posting HH's for review is difficult because HU play is sooooooo read dependant.

Ill give my general strategy

This is all if the blinds are small compared to stacks and can play a lot of pots

I almost never fold on the button...I raise very liberally on the button, but not a whole lot out of position..I don't particularly like bloating pots out of position
Until my opponent catches on, I continuation bet nearly ever pot I take the lead in to start
If I do cont. bet and hit, I often check the turn, depending on how the board reads, to induce a bluff on the river

Other than that, everything else just depends on the player..I typically dont limp big hands because since I raise so much, that disguises my hand enough
