my HU challenge

[Kumubou]

If you have not played your matches by Monday, I'll take you on -- I'm just busy with moving and Thanksgiving and kicking people in the face and all that.

I also see your Fei Long and raise you one angry Akiha Tohno.

All right, I'm about to admit something shameful. I have no idea what the whole 5+.25 notation means. I see this all the time in reference to SNGs and tournaments, and I'm completely clueless (I've only ever played limit online). Can someone explain waht this x+y notation means to me?

Also, if you're not full for tonight I'd like to play. I don't do AIM, but PM me if you're interested.

Prize+Entry Fee(Goes to the site).

i.e. 1 vs 1 $5+.25cents = $10 to winner, $.25cents to the site from each player.


Right so i play you HU $5... and you give me $5 back for fidning the 5 WORST played hands? Or must they fit that critea?

If the latter is true, thats way to much hassle.

The +.25 is the amount that the site keeps. So if you both play, together you have put in $10.50, but only $10 is available for the payouts. This .25 is the vig that the site is charging you.

Ah, thanks guys. Also for the record Guruman, it's not like I'd need the extra $5 for finding your mistakes. I'm not the best HU player either, so if you wanted to point out my atrocious mistakes, I'd do the same for you and call it a deal.

[Guruman]

you find me 8 bad hands with relevant reasoning and I'll give you five bucks. You're welcome to review my HH after the match.

Jaxup and I had a perfectly good HU match going for a while there. Lots of complex bluffs and calling down with king high.

then I flopped a straight and he flopped two pair at the same time just after the blinds got serious. Needless to say Jax sucked out on the river after a capped flop and turn. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

it was a hell of a match.

who's next?!!?

I'd be happy to play you HU. PM me if you'd like. I realize that since most of my posts on 2+2 have been in mid-high stakes NL I might not seem like a good candidate, but I do also play limit. Keep in mind that "horribly misplayed" can be a pretty vague term in HU limit play.
