hu killing me

"At 30/60 the rake is like 7.5 bb/100 hands? "

you of course mean .75bb?

[joker122]

"Not to put you on the spot but let me ask you a couple almost rhetorical questions. When you were playing Reztes the other day...What was your edge? How many hands did it take you to identify that edge? Was that edge good enough where it wouldn't be better waiting 5 min, 10 min. or an hour for someone worse?
"

are you asking CDC or myself this question?

No, I meant 7.5 bb/100 for the whole table, but it's actually more like 5. So yes, around .75-.8 bb/100 per person. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

I was asking you. Just making the round-about point that he's a tough spot who everyone knows and I was surprised to see you playing him...at least for as long as you did. I mean there's something to be said for trying out the regulars to see if they're worth playing. But once you see they're good...

__1__ I think your advice in this whole thread is awesome. To put some drastic numbers to what you are saying, I believe I have a 5 bb/100 or greater edge on the megafish I often play at 5/10, that's $50 per 100 hands. There are plenty of 30/60 regulars who I feel I can probably beat, but not for a lot more than 1 bb/100. So which way is best for moneymaking if I can make the same per hour at 5/10 with practically no variance, that's +sanityEV.

yea imo he played some of the early hands poorly. that combined with the fact that he started running like god and i wanted to get even was why i played him for so long.

too true, but i always like pushing myself to get better and eventually be able to beat the toughest opponents. the main reason i play hu is obv for money, but it has a unique competition element that really drives me.

+sanityEV. I love it! It's pretty remarkable how much sanityEV takes priority over most everything else in poker these days for me.
