Heads up No limit Holdem Strategy

[Hurt62]

Hey guys,

Where can I find information on strategy for Heads up No Limit Holdem. I've already read the heads up section in Harrington on Holdem II. I'm looking for more material. If you could suggest a book, online resource or dvd that would be great.

Cardrunners. Doubt anything else exists.

he wants to play NH. Stox is a limit specialist. If he wanted to play HU limit, Expertholdem.com has DVDs.

Bad advice. They do not like questions like the OPs in that forum. Either post a hand or don't post.

If you take the time to simply go through the past, oh, I don't know, 25 pages in the HU forum and read through it, you will find very strong material. I didn't say go to the forum and ask what to read. I said read and post in the forum. There is no easy way to become good at Heads Up, and yes, many of us appreciate that fact. I post there regularly, and I think it is a very good forum, especially since it deals with so many soft concepts.

I suggested a coach, because for a small relative fee, some concepts can be clarified for you.

You are not going to find any good books, because heads up players are guarded in their concepts. The player pool is very small. Unlike the major forums, we only have a hand full of regular posters. This matters because in the bigger forums (NL, LIMIT HE), there is so much noise, one question is going to receive 5 very different answers.

Also, mind that writing a good heads up book is nearly impossible. For example, I play nearly every hand, some very good players choose to play 60% of their hands. Some people are very very math based, other's are by feel. While many situations are basic, many players will disagree on what defines a fish, what a good call, raise, fold, etc. Heads-up is so situation dependent that looking at one hand tells nothing useful. While I may look at a lone hand and disagree with you, it all breaks down to the fact that you were there, and I wasn't. While this has weight with a full ring, it is paramount to master this when you are playing heads-up, and no book can properly express that.

And that's why I suggested Cardrunners.

Or Stox's site. No dis intended.
