Re: HU LHE Defending BB (comparison between 1/2 and 1/3 SB)
[ QUOTE ]
your math is right, but if you are starting out at HU isn't 3/6 a little high?
UB has HU tables with a .5 rake cap but it ends up being an insane amount of rake payed [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] .. something like $18/100hands at 2/4 .. I wanted to start playing HU more as well, but that is way too much

Yeah, rakeback is pretty essential when you start playing HU (or session fees!).
The other thing is that anyone that survives for any length of time at that level of rake is going to be a fairly decent player, so your edge is pretty small.
Here's something that puzzles me, though.

Sklansky states in HPFAP that we have to play at least 40% of hands vs an aggressive op HU who's trying to steal our bb.
How did he come up with this number?
How do we determine the right mix of re-raising vs calling hands?
