Awesome work!
You've helped rev up the liquidity @ the £11 DYM games, too.
Ouch took a heck of a beating today lol. Nothing went right, I either misjudged my spot or got it in good and got outdrawn, either way it happens and we move on
Nice session today getting a lot of my losses from yesterday back. It goes to show although its tempting to play on during a bad session its best to call it a day like I did last night and come back nice and refreshed today and it paid off.
Excellent session not normally in the normal way. Struggled a little in the heads up games but did brilliant in the DYMS. A lovely bonus from the sky poker premiership made it a very good session.
Nice solid session, played pretty solid, I did feel for one of my opponents as I beat him or her 12 times in a row and they just couldn't let go but hey ho Its nothing personal I'm just doing what I'm here to do

Twelve games in a row? Haha. That's a pretty good run.
Those HU results are extraordinary, & I envy your bankroll growth.
I happen to be (officially) the world's worst HU player, but I'm actually intching to try PLO8 HU. I am pretty sure I'll do my conkers, but itches have to be scratched.
Without giving away any secrets, why do you do so well at these? Is it similar to your PLO8 DYM game, controlled aggression?
How long do they last, on average? Does all the money get in "pre" pretty early? How many can you (sensibly) play simultaneously?
Having seen me play plenty times, do you think I could adapt to HU?
I might just try a few cheapies today, to see how it all works, especially if they are over pretty quickly, which I imagine they are.
I tried a couple of £2.10 hu the other day. The first one my oppo thought a pair of sevens was good enough to get it all in on the very first flop against my wheel up and down. I thought he may have regged by mistake. The second game took much longer and although I had the edge for most a rivered king gave my oppo the better house when all the money had gone in. I have looked at Hotties progress with a green eye myself and thought I would give it a go but am not sure I am skilled enough HU but the practice will do me good I suppose. Wp Hottie keep up the good work Nick

Yeah, we seem to think alike Nick.
I am deffo going to try a few, though I'm pretty sure I'll get beaten up. But if I don't try, I'll regret it.

Hi Tikay
I like to think my education helps me being a decent player. I have a degree in business management and 2 diplomas, one in maths and one in psychology so I am always plotting, planning and making percentage choices at the tables. I like to mix my style up at the table so that I don't give the same read or pattern to the opponent. Changing styles in heads up plo8 is a big thing and a thing not a lot of players do because if you fall into a pattern its not so hard to pick the player off. Most games average 10-15 mins if not less. I have had a few go 40 mins but this only normally happens when two good solid players clash. I only play 1-2 at a time. I also think you could adapt. I think you have a good game however you may have to open your range a little as we can't always wait for great hands in heads up as the blinds are on us all the time. Good luck at the tables and any advice you need you know where I am

Thanks, & yes, I'm aware I'd need to widen my range "considerably".....;)
Whether I can is another matter, of course.
The "pattern" thing is interesting. It took me a while to get to grips with one player in particular, who ALWAYS does a certain thing in certain situations. But I worked it out eventually, & found a way to combat it. Been a great help actually, though I need "position" ideally.
Must be said, I'm as guilty as any at "patterns", but I've started mixing it up a lot recently, as most players know my game inside out by now. I even played a hand last night that did NOT contain an ace. Just the one hand, mind, can't be too careful, eh?
Having a business mind helps, too, I think, as you suggest.
Anyway, I'll give it a whirl soon.
I played a "Live" PLO Tourney recently, it was (alternatively, per LEVEL) 4/5/6 card. Me & Matey Boy got Heads Up, & it happened to be at the start of the 6 card Level. Opening ranges were pretty wide, fair to say......doubt there are ANY hands in 6 card HU that we can't see a flop with!
