Heads up No limit Holdem Strategy

See Math of Poker section on HU NL poker. HU poker especially in tourneys where players are less than 15 BB deep is just about shoving.

Hi Everyone:

We just talked to one of our authors about doing a book for heads-up no-limit hold 'em, and we told him to give it a shot. That's my only comment for now.

Best wishes,
Mason

mason i don't understand, i am almost done with a book that specifically deals with HU NLHE and i am a far better NLHE HU player than all of your authors combined (barring ray zee). you told me you are not interested in seeing my book. why is it that you contract people like ed miller that can't even play poker to write yoru poker books? my book is going to be about 20 times better than anything ever published by 2+2.

you guys have david slansky the philosopher using his science to tell us what is the optimal line to take. big deal, that isn't poker it is so easy to use logic to come up what is the optimal line to take. poker is about hand reading, and only the best poker players can teach hand reading and none of your books have dealt with that topic. that is because you don't have real poker players teaching poker at your place, why is that?

you guys think that teaching poker isn't about the skill of a player. you think that sometimes an okay player can be a great teacher, and sometimes a great player can be a bad teacher but that's actually not true. personally when i was learning poker i always liked to learn from the best players i could find to teach me, i didn't ask them if htey had a degree from MIT, i just liked to know that they coudl actually beat high stakes pokre for a lot of money. and that method of learning seemed to serve me pretty good.

Hi fatty:

First off I don't know who you are, but I have been recently telling almost everyone who asks about us doing their book that we are currently fully committed. The reason for this response is that we are currently fully committed.

If your book is 20 times better than anything Two Plus Two has ever published it will be a shame that it probably won't get published, and even if it does that virtually no one will buy it. I really wish I could do more for you, but we are a small company and just don't have the resources at this time to take on more than what we have committed to.

Actually, when I was first introduced to our MIT author I didn't even ask him if he had a degree. I already knew from his posts here that he had potential.

the point is that the reason you don't have resources is because they are all comitted to people that don't play poker but write about poker. and to tell you who i am, this is bruiser.

it's so cute when little boys puff out their chests and talk tough.


anyway, it's not me. gotta be Harrington or Stox, probably Stox. should be Strasser though, but he's busy. anyway Bruiser just finish your book don't let anyone talk you off your goals.

it's unfornate for 2p2 that it wont get to publish bruiser's book because it is the best book i've ever read on poker since TOP.

Absolutely your best resource. Watch Green Plastic's HU videos. The guy's a genius.

Brusier vs Ed Miller HU for publishing rights!

I will bet on Bruiser laying 1.2 to 1 odds.
