Default Re: this month\'s heads up magazin article

Don't have time to read it right now, but there are definitely some differences between HUcash and HUsngs.

Just briefly looking at this article he is saying that minraising is a mistake preflop out of the sb. This is not true in husng's, but would definitely be a mistake in most HUcash situations.

There are numerous situations that minraising preflop from the sb is fine in husng's given certain stack sizes and blind levels. I almost always minraise in the 3rd blind (25/50) level until me or opponent has 12 bb or less. You are still accomplishing your goal of making opponent play raised pots oop, while leaving yourself some room to work postflop. Sure, you are giving him good odds to see the flop, but your cbet will take it down often enough on the flop to be profitable. Most people play horrible oop.
