Default Re: Heads up 5/10 - Am I playing to tight

i don't know if you're playing too tight or not, but i'm pretty sure you're playing way too passive HU...

...you propably shouldn't ever play as loose or aggressive as i do, but my base line for raising from sb is more or less like A + something, pair + low, dbl-suited lowish connectish, suited wrapish lowish (depending on opps it's more hands or less), but you can safely raise when ever you have an A +wheel card + card higher than 10, pair + 2 wheel cards and dbl-suited with 4 cards between 2-7...

...if you want to be more than 60/40 fav in o8, then you can only raise with AA...

...with 2379s i don't really even mind just limping, but if i don't particularily respect my opp it's ok to raise and no you can't ck-fold that flop or you will get pushed around and you wont get payed with your better hands...

...2379 is only ahead of middle random crap and high only hands (and you don't want them to call either) so for the raise to be correct you need to expect to get paid or be able to push your opp of the pot at some point
