My sng is improving, ITM 70%.
The problem is......with even stakes 2 guys HU play, I always end up second, three times in a roll.
In all three HU, my strategy is sit back,limp and catch bluffs. I didnt raise with Ax,Kx because these guys will always call.
The last one got me banging head on a wall. This guy raise a lot of time, stole a lot of pots. I was waiting for a good trap play hand but I got a bit angry. Opponent 5000 me 3500. So this last hand, I got K7s, he raised 2bb, I reraise 1bb. Flop Kxx. He bets $500. I reraised him $1000. Him AI, I AI. He got AK. Any comments?
1. My play sucks. I analysed my play. I probably should not be playing limp,catch bluff strategy. Every flop I am the one under pressure to think whether my opponent is bluffing or not. This has a tendency to make me lose respect for opponent raise, impatient, tilt, and a tendency to AI bang heads whenever I have a little bit of something.
I remember my different play while back. My strategy is to raise a lot preflop. And beat my opponent into psychological submission. Two of them just gives up with even stake, they keep folding until the end! And it seems it is easier for me to fold (when there is trouble) if I am in a aggressive bluff mode, instead of passive trap play mode.
So what do you think?
