stats from a HU match, I folded too much preflop?

[DMBFan23]

Hey all,

this is from the current heads up tournament going on in the microlimit forum. it was a 50 BB freezeout, and I won in 150 hands. I think I played well, but I'm not sure.

am I folding too much in position here? a lot of my folds were with hands like 42o or 63o after I was the aggressor the last couple of hands, or to regroup after he caught a river. also, did I not defend the BB enough?

I am not sure what is optimal here

During current Hold'em 1on1 session you were dealt 150 hands and saw flop:
- 63 out of 75 times while in big blind (84%)
- 52 out of 75 times while in small blind (69%)

anyone play HU?

Were you playing in a structure where the BB is the button? Because you saw the flop more from the BB than SB. Last night krishanleong abused me in the CHUMP match, and he open-raised any 2 from the SB (button). Maybe you can post a list of all the hands you played and include just the preflop action. I would be curious to see something like this myself.

I think this is a huge mistake.

I play about anything from the SB when it has the button and far less from the BB.

HFAP suggests that you should defend your BB in this situation like 40% of the time, but it seems like there is alot of disagreement with that around here.

[DMBFan23]

nah, the SB was the button.

this could help, though I think there's value in how the postflop action affects the metagame. I'll see what I can put together

That's my point. Position is king.

ah you meant the mistake was not seeing more flops from the SB. I thought you were saying playing in that structure was a mistake

Well it depends...

If your opponent openraises w any two cards you should obviosly defend with more hands and plan to CR/bet out pretty much any flop. that is to your liking...

I myself raises pretty much any two. Of course that depends who your playing against.

[AlwaysWrong]

So this is saw flop, not VPIP. That makes it pretty impossible to say what was happening here.

As others have said, you should be looser from the sb in position than from the bb. But if your opponent limped a lot in the sb and folded a lot to your preflop raise, maybe you were.

Hey DMB,

Here are some stats from me when I felt like I may have been folding a bit too much:

[ QUOTE ]
During current Hold'em 1on1 session you were dealt 144 hands and saw flop:
- 59 out of 72 times while in big blind (81%)
- 63 out of 72 times while in small blind (87%)
- 0 out of 0 times in other positions (0%)
- a total of 122 out of 144 (84%)

FWIW.
