i'm passive w/ a deep stack, and aggressive with a short stack. But, that's why i'm playing more of these, becaause i dont know what's good. [/ QUOTE ] In HU, effective stack is always equal... so you should be more passive when effective stack is deep (i.e. blinds are low and/or you're close in chips) and aggressive when effective stack is short. Who's the shorty and who's the big stack shouldn't matter much unless you have a very strong edge over your opponent (and you're concerned with ROI and not $/hour), in which case you should play more tightly on the short stack than as a big stack. |

I guess. idk I just dont like it. I dont know what it is. I guess I feel like none of the stats will ever be that good cause Ill never play enough of them. But you probally dont need as big a sample size for HU tourneys?

I've decided my HU game blows chunks, so I'm going to donate at the HU sngs for a while. So I have some clue as to when I've improved enough, What roi would be considered good? [/ QUOTE ] if you're looking to improve your MTT HU play, i'd guess this is only going to be marginally useful unless you find a site with ~15x stack HU sngs. |

Heads up is truly very tough. Did anybody catch that recent heads up match between Sklansky and Chan? I found it strange that Sklansky called off 600K of his stack with KJs so quickly. Also, why does he fold those 45o hands on the button? I thought it was incorrect to fold any two cards preflop???

come on man. clearly if someone didn't see your tv show, they don't know how big the stacks are. if the stacks are like 10 bajillion with blinds of 100k/200k, calling 600k is trivial, as it is in many other situations. a few hints might help. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

HU is interesting. I recently started playing a lot more of them, and my win rate is around 70%, so ROI of ~40% less rake at between $10 and $25. That may or may not be sustainable, of course, but I don't think it can be too far out.
My advice is to be aggressive, especially on the flop, as you want to pick up as many small pots as possible - but try not to commit too many chips to any one hand unless you have a monster. Grind them down. |

I thought the title of this thread was in Vietnamese for a second before I realised it was all acronyms.

[img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] c [/ QUOTE ] Blinds are 30k/60k, Chan has a little under 600k before posting the BB and Sklansky has 2.2m. Sklansky picks up KJs and limps, Chan pushes, Sklansky immediately calls. |
