reminds me of this hand ... villain was donking it up on a 6-max 600 NL table and making fun of everyones play, and challenged all of us to a HU match on an empty full-ring 600 NL table

so i sat down with him

this is the second hand in ....i called flop planning on taking it away on the turn if he checked/bet small, but as soon as he bet 40 on the turn, i knew he had TPTK or better, and my draw was there, so the implied odds were perfect

sadly i couldnt finish off his last 6 because he got KK and i got Q2 [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

without giving away too many "secrets" (haha! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ) I'm of the opinion the only two very good groups of hands in nlh are suited aces and pocket pairs.

It's what I preach alot when I coach.

So... When... We're both deep, I never fail to reraise A3s, unless he's been a maniac. And he had been raising alot but never reraising.

Plus, this is heads up, I was reraising a few kinds of hands.

LoL! [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] It's so funny though when they pick up AA or KK or QQ and have just 1 mere bb.

Re: Full tilt Heads up Hand (lc)
 

I like heads up except today it took me a long time to realize that 3 of my 6 tables had degenerated to superaggro 3-handed or HU games. I cleaned up though (just good cards - I suck)
