Pudge, someone in manchild's BBV thread responded w/ some pretty bad logic so i called them a [censored] idiot. This person then responded w/ a HU challenge and called me a low-limit sng monkey. So obv i accepted b/c of their [censored] logic and the fact i had never heard of them + assumed they played micro stakes etc. Turns out that hes a significant winner at 3/6 and 5/10 NL HU games on FTP. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] whats the correct line here? (he also wanted to play 4 tables of 3/6 and i just moved up to 1/2, but kee in mind pasterbator coached me so im ahead of most 1/2 players in terms of skill IMO. also inyaface did 1 coaching session with us so im pretty sure that alone significantly boosts my EV right?)

Ya I read that thread.
If you are uncomfortable playing out of your roll don't do it so you can win an internet dick waving contest.
Also HU play is very very different from 6 max play it depends if you are comfortable playing HU.
Make an offer you are comfortable with if he rejects whatever, nothing really lost except an internet dick waving contest.

L3-L4. It depends on table conditions and stuff.

Chip preservation. You have to fold to a 3-bet a lot of times.
C-betting OOP sucks. You are shallow enough that building a pot isn't that important

[/ QUOTE ]
Is the primary purpose of a c-bet to build the pot or take the pot with the c-bet?

In L1 making marginally +cEV bluffs isn't worth risking large chunks of your stack, when you can just limp and c/f when you miss. You also disguise your hand.

I thought the purpose of raising with AK was to reduce the field and take the initiative in the hand? Not really to build a pot... (though you will get called by weaker aces often especially at the lower limit sit and gos so it ends up being a value raise)

Aren't you giving up both of those things if you just limp AK?

If you advocate limp/calling a raise with AK, wouldn't it be better to just raise in the first place? If you hit your pair on the flop and someone is playing back at you in a 4 or 5 handed pot are you really prepared to felt it?

It just seems pretty flawed to limp AK from any position early in the sit and go with a full table... I could see making an argument for action limping it vs aggressive opponents later in the tournament, but that's a different story..
