I don't think it's as much a compliment to your HU and 3-handed play as you think it is.

Obviously lots of players don't like playing ultra-short regardlesss of the opponent (even if they don't understand the implications of the rake...they just don't like 2-3 handed play...you see this at live B&M all the time).

It's possible they are partly complimenting you because they don't think you completely suck...so staying in with you HU just isn't worth it. But that doesn't mean they are trembling in fear because of YOU....it's just because they dislike ultra-short.


I sometimes play ultra-short too (either with a super-fish...or maybe waiting for a sitting-out player to perhaps return) and frequently my opponents will just give up and leave.
I don't think my HU play is anything to send my opponent trembling in fear about...but if we are going off of your criteria then evidently I'm more intimidating then I knew...because very often when we get to HU they decide to sit-out and not play against me.



Also - I saw earlier in this thread that you have evidently given up the attempt to induce-tilt through table-chat. Glad to hear this.


I agree with the others that your numbers in the blinds don't look good.
Also agree with others that specific hands might be a good way to identify those leaks...since the gang can only get so far by trying to look at the stats.

It's possible that you are hitting a tough stretch and just aren't catching any breaks...but it's also pretty likely that you are doing something in your hands that is just a plain-old leak...so try to find some of those leaks.

Your methods for trying to change it around (including playing fewer tables and hopefully really focusing) seem good to me.
