Both of these hands represent situations I try specifically to avoid playing low limit poker against poor opponents. The reason is they can be very frustrating, can be costly, high variance, rake feedings, and involve a high degree of aggression with marginal holdings. I feel that in higher limit games these types of plays have much more value, overcome the rake, and provide some sort of advertising,

so never move up in limits.

however to poor low limit players it just provides frustration and general feelings of duress. They make tons of more errors in multiway pots, why play them heads up and make their calling station tendancies and terrible bluffs more or less correct?

actually in multiway pots that are more sizeable than the SH/HU type, their calling-station tendencies are more correct because they are often getting sufficient odds to draw if behind, as well as pay off with a weaker hand that might beat a bluff with enough frequency to show profit. in a HU pot they are hopelessly drawing or chasing when the best move is to just let it go given the horrible odds. the pot's smaller size has more of an effect of magnifying their errors to a greater degree. this is especially true when you get into evaluating effective odds for their hand in the HU situations vs. the overlay they get in a multiway hand.
