HU Etiquette

[ArturiusX]

I usually say "I'll play 20 more hands" or something.

yup. if you know you're leaving, just let your opponent know when you know. "10 mins" is fine. whatever.

If the table is breaking and it gets down to 2, I will just leave unless I think I'm better than the other player. But I think if you want to leave immediately it's fine.

If I sit with someone HU or have been playing more than a few hands HU after a table breaks, I will usually give a warning between 5-15 min. and then another, like '5 more hands' or something right before I leave.

i think it matters a lot of you are sitting at a heads up table or not. if a 6 handed game gets down to two i have no problem leaving whenever i feel like it, like for example my name is up on a waiting list for another table or something. but if for some reason i know i'm leaving in 10 minutes i'll say so.

at a heads up table i think you should try to give notice about how long you plan to play when you start if it's only for a little while. also i think this is a lot more important at 25/50+ where the player pool is very small, action isn't always so readilly available, and you kind of get to know eachother.

with such a wide player base at midstakes, i dont think there is such thing as hu etiquette. people hit and run me 24/7, etc. at higher stakes, when good people actually willingly play against each other, there should be some type of etiquette
