I was on the table with this player since last 2 tables. We preety much aggressed each other, didn't let each other to take soft spots.
It's about the 25th hand heads-up and I don't think that stats matter that much because we both mixed up our play. It's the first all-in preflop and it's quite an interesting spot because I am quite readless heads-up, but I think that he is able to do this 4bet shove light sometimes (i don't know exactly how often)
It's my second 3bet (he folded to the first), but he didn't open very wide(lets's say 33% fold in BTN, 33% minraise BTN adn 33% call BTN)
So, here is the hand:
PokerStars Hand #108036600900: Tournament #824286999, €9+€1 EUR Hold'em No Limit - Level XXXIII (100000/200000) - 2013/12/05 1:35:39 EET [2013/12/04 18:35:39 ET] Table '824286999 16' 9-max Seat #4 is the button Seat 2: W45_15T_D45?

ATo fold or call?

My gut reaction is that he has some sort of moderate strength hand that he is willing to get it in with, but doesn't have you dominated. He wants a fold but is fine with a call. His actions seem to indicate some combination of a decent hand and a desire to not want to get bullied in a HU match. On the contrary, your odds to call are not great, less than 3:2 on the call by my math. So you have to be sure that you are not dominated to make the call. You either have to be ahead or at least have it be a race. I have to believe that he would have made a smaller raise with AJ+ and 1010+ to induce YOU to go all-in. My gut tells me he is somewhere in the neighorhood of KQ or 99 because it seems like he has a decent hand but is hoping that you will fold. I would make the call, although I could certainly be wrong.

ATo is pretty strong heads up and your stack size is very good for him to 4bet over the top of you with plenty of f/eq so he could be doing this pretty wide indeed. I agree with Wiz in that if he had a premium he might just click it back to induce you to shove with the illusion of f/eq. Personally, I'm going with a hand as strong as AT here with no regrets at all unless I felt villain was a heads-up super nit which would be really unusual.
