Re: HUSNG Assertion: You should never limp.
I think that following an "always do" rule in HU can only lead to holes in your game. Sure some players raise or fold every hand, and do it very profitably. But that doesn't mean that it's never...

Re: NL HU SNG 11$
As played its a definite call. But yeah, bet more on turn. I think you see a straight or a 6 alot here but you also see lot's of other [censored] enough to make this a good call.

Re: (NLSNG $11) - 2pair on paired-flop
That's a two (or better) or an awful bluff. vbet less and fold to pressure. Also, what do you guys think or checking river to induce bluff or vbet with a worse hand?

Re: Heads Up Game Theory exercise
you are risking 3bb to win 1.5 if im not mistaken in the definition. Therefore you should raise top 1/3 of numbers = 67+. Knowing that you're raising this range, villain should call with top 1/2 of...

Re: NLTRN $11 - 77 preflop
I think smooth calling is really only a good option if stacks are deeper, allowing for much more post flop play. With the blinds at 25/50, I think this is a push. 77 is a little low, but against a...

Re: HUSNG variance question
yeah, if you really have a 60% winrate then the chances of being down 12 buyins over 100 games is about 1/1000. Even if your true winrate is slightly lower it's very unlikely. What is likely, is that...

Re: Beginning mu HU career NLTRN
There's nothing wrong with playing the 2.20's to start out and learn the basics. It's true that the rake is high but the buy-in is low, which is nice if you're just getting started. Of course, as...

Re: NLTRN $11 - QQ turn decision
I think you can still safely value bet this, although I might check for pc and to try to induce a bluff/increase the chances of getting called by a vbet on the river.

Re: my goodness, NLTU
The 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif doesn't improve your draw at all. Still, he's giving you good odds to draw. I think it's OK.

Re: 2nd hand - how\'s my line? - NLTRN $11
A5 isn't a hand that I particularly like to play strong pf oop against a random opponent. I guess I did overplay it. The reason I raised the flop was because the flop was so drawy.
