Re: In a HU match when is it acceptable to request a reload?
 

I don't request a reload, I just sit out. Even the bad players know why you're sitting out and most will reload on their own.

i always request a reload around 20bb...it may be douchey but there's no way i'm giving some fish a shot at 200 of my big blinds for 20 of his.

ask for a reload whenever you want, its not bad etiquette.. why should you risk 20k to win 600 in the example above.. if i start out playing a guy with full stacks and he gets short i sit out and say reload please, and ill usually quit if he wont (unless hes really bad) and by the same token i would never complain if someone sat out on me when i got short
