Default Help Me Badger Stars into HU Cash Games - Final Chapter?

So as per http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showfl...=1#Post11504055 Stars has added some heads-up tables to their lobby as what I assume to be a trial run (you can find them at the bottom of the cash game lobby). Currently they are spreading micros up through 10/20 with both NL and LHE. This is a good start! If you're into heads-up play and would like to see higher stakes spread please e-mail them and give them some positive reinforcement / encouragement!

ideas@pokerstars.com, pokermanager@pokerstars.com

Hello,

I see that you've begun to spread some low-stakes heads up tables and I'm very glad that PokerStars has taken the time to open these tables to test the waters. If they're successful please don't be stingy or hesitant in opening tables throughout the rest of the limits (after all, HU is more popular with a 50/100 player who pays a minimal proportion of rake to their betting than to a 2/4 LHE player who pays around four big bets per hundred hands in rake with a $0.50 cap).

Take care,
-name-

Good work man. I'm trying to get money on Stars but having limited success. I saw Scary Tiger playing these for quite a bit yesterday though.

Heck ya! This is some great stuff! !!!

I busted a guy, who bought in for $40 in the 1/2 h/u.

I won $19.00 and the house raked $21.00

Losing proposition.

This was a long session. I went up $20, then I was down $20, then I was up $15, then I was down $20, like a yo-yo, until he finally went all in and I profited $19.00

I sat out and asked him (as I couldn't remember) if he bought in for $40 and he said yes.

I looked at the session notes for that table and found the 1st hand he played. He did buy in for $40.00 and I have $65.55 to start with.

I ended up with $83.80 when he reloaded, but I sat out. I won $18.25 and the house raked $21.74.

H/U is definitely not for low limit.
