[ QUOTE ] how do you beat jayden21 heads up????? i don't get it.

I've gotten him to call (at 10/20) a 3bet from 60 to 400 before with xx. another thing, that i think works against him, if he is the "the mood" is to limp/call more buttons, and to limp/raise more buttons. pretty easy to figure out if he is in the "i like to play big pots oop" cause if he starts raising every time you limp, he's obv in that mood. this kinda is a weird thing, but it works in the sense that you know he is raising xx most of the time OOP and cbetting, so you can float flops and raise turns, or just riase the flop right away and decide what to do if he calls or 3bets you. i dont know how much more hu action he will give me, cause i've gotten the best of him for the most part hu, not the case for 6m, but this is the kinda stuff i've tried against him and i think works. so, to recap, find what mood he is in, and if you need to, start limping more btns as opposed to raising, and mix up your limp/calls limp/folds limp/raises with your standard button raises. profit.

Re: The New Official FTP Regulars Thread
more to talk about good/decent players tho i have discussed some bad ones before, i won't do it anymore. too many people, mainly the TAGfish lurk at 2p2 and read these threads. it just isn't profitable.

Re: The New Official FTP Regulars Thread
FoldTOcash is a huge fish, and when you see him sitting alone @ a empty table, you should always sit and play HU with him.
definitely someone you should take a shot vs.

Mark [/ QUOTE ] right. but giving away names of people to play HU simply seems irresponsible. i mostly use it now as an i hate reg x y and z but i don't go into why i can beat them or at least why i think i can beat them.

Re: The New Official FTP Regulars Thread
posting a "how to guide" on how to beat a well known fish is just stupid.

[/ QUOTE ] for heads up, the regulars sit at the tables, and the fish choose who they play, they don't want to sit at a table and wait. so it's not like we're fighting to get a seat with him asap. plus, having an idea how to play someone rather than having to figure it out can provide a decent amount of $ terms of EV. lastly, if we all help each other out then we can all gain. it's not necessarily at the expense of others. not everyone talks to other people on aim, or uses iirc or irc or whatever it's called. And if anyone wants to pick apart my game and provide tips to beat me I'm all ears.
