Oh well, if he keeps calling with 10high, you'll rake it in...

Playing heads up would require playing SO many more hands and the variance would be crazy so I wouldn't advise it unless you have experiance.

DOHHHHHHH

On the evidence of this hand, yes.

Make a quick assessment of ur opponent tho, if he's gonna play rly tight dont bother.

Cheers pod. It's juggle btw, would be jugglingeek but I'm not allowed so many characters :-(. I've been doing well on the 6-max tabels playing 8 at once. I was just looking for something to break up the monotomy of grinding NL4 without runining my BR to be honest. I find the £2 deepstacks are ok but they last so long. I started with £90 at the beginning of the month. I'm up 12.5 buyins now. But the last week I havn't won or lost a penny. It's so frustrating.

you seemed pretty solid yest, didnt take any risks. if i remember on both tables you were sat to my right, one table i was about 3 bis up which might have slowed you down and the other table there were 2 maniacs. stick at it mate. ps are you on 2 monitors to play 8 tables, if not tell me how to get more than 4 up comfortably. cheers phil

rake is a killer at microstakes HU

I thought it was junglegreek ; )

I've dabbled a bit at 4NL HU and i have to agree with grantorino. HU is high variance and the rake is an absolute killer. If you dont get all their stack pretty quickly both stacks seem to dwindle to the point where neither of you can make a profit. I prefer to play the HU SNG's, the rake is pretty good on those. Have a go at them Junglecreek!

rake makes it pointless unless you just shove pre )
No room at all for small ball/post flop poker HU @NL4

sometimes I just sit in with 40 bigs and shove pre )
