my HU strategy for PP 10+1

[chipzilla]

Basically I use the chart below that I made using the SNG Analyzer, when it downs to two people. However I do believe that it is somewhat incomplete and wrong. (i.e does not consider the stack sizes)

Move all-in:

22+,A2+,K2s+,K6o+,Q6s+,Q8o+,J9+,T9s

Call all-in against an opponent who is:

-Pushing with any two cards: 22+,A2+,K2+,Q2s+,Q7o+,J9+,T9
-Loose(pushing the same hands that I push): 33+,A2s+,A7o+,KT+
-Semi-Tight: 55+,A9s+,ATo+
-Tigth: 88+,AQ+


Tell me if anything looks stupid, and if so please help me to develop it.

These seems alright... But I think as the blinds raise your raising standards have to drop quite a bit... once you are down to 5-7BB you really ahve to open up in my opinion.

[Scuba Chuck]

If by tight, you mean he almost never raises, and lets you steal his blinds every time, and you're surely gonna back him down into a corner, then ok. Otherwise, I think semi-tight is as far as you should go.

BTW, there's more than one way to play HU besides push/fold. Especially when the blinds are smaller.

[chipzilla]

Yes, that is simply my definition for tight players. I know that there are other strategies than folding and pushing but what I am really interested is whether this chart would help me to beat 'PP 800 chip tournies' whenever there are two people left in the game. (And assuming that the blinds are minimum 300/600)

Also, what hands should I be looking for to go all-in against an opponent who completes the blind? (In other words, is it okay if I go all-in with the same hands that I push from SB against a person who calls from SB whenever I am in the BB)

[Juff]

Surely calling an all in with 22 cannot be correct? I'd probably also extend that to 33/44, as you're essentially hoping you're a coinflip?

if blinds are 200/400 or higher, then u can push any2 from sb as long as either of u have 3000 or less chips

i dont really play 10+1's, but i like to play a little bit of poker when it gets heads up

[chipzilla]

Well, assume that you and your opponent both have similar stacks, and the blinds are 200/400 or more. If you know that he will push with any two cards, the Sit-N-Go Analyzer shows that calling with 22 is +EV.
