Re: Heads Up Limit starting hand guide?
This is for Limit: I assume SB is the button.
SB: Raise 80% of your hands, fold 20%. BB: Call/Raise 85% of raises from the SB, fold 15%. Raise or re-raise your top 45% of starting hands. This should be a decent start to prevent your opponent from running you over. You must adapt to player tendencies to be successful. To the other posters: Why are you cluttering up the forum with weak sarcasm?

Re: Heads Up Limit starting hand guide?
Okay . . . a meaningful response . . .
I play every hand from the BB (even for a raise, which often means a substandard hand) and every hand from the SB. I'll only change if I've picked up something obvious -- if my opponent really and truly does only raise from the SB with only pockets, AK, AQ, and KQ, then maybe I'll fold once in awhile. If he starts raising from the BB a ton, I might fold some of my weaker SB hands. But really, I don't see anything wrong with playing every single hand you've got in a limit HU ring game. Not unless your opponent is giving you a good reason not to.

Re: Heads Up Limit starting hand guide?
It depends upon the skill and aggressiveness of your opponent. Against a decent opponent who is somewhat aggressive, I'm dropping my bad hands from the sb, hands like 53o, 84o, J2o, and stuff like that. I'm also not calling a raise with those hands from the BB.
And to the poster who said raise 80 and fold 20: You never limp in the SB then? I will limp in the small blind with hands like 65s, 87o, and some other marginal hands. I don't think raise or fold should be auto raise or fold, especially against an observant opponent.
