Re: ****Official HUHU NC/LC Thread for 2012****

Have you played the non-challenges? I played the $3 buy in one, won $1.50

Re: ****Official HUHU NC/LC Thread for 2012****

Yes, I played a few last night. I find it messes with your mind more, being able to see your opponent's score hand after hand. Also, it seems like everyone quits after the first 30 hands. I would think the main benefit of the "Live" games would be to play a longer match with the same table of bots as well as the ability to tailor your strategy based on what the human opponent is doing.

I'm not off to the best start tbh, but it's a pretty tiny sample so far and I'm basically learning 6m NLH as I go.

Re: ****Official HUHU NC/LC Thread for 2012****

It does mess with you mind a little knowing you are behind but the only difference is you are watching one player over the rest. I think the real interesting thing is what happens once someone exceeds the cap (which is triple the chips you have). I once won half my chips (I bluffed at the river) while my opponent went all in pre-flop and lost. That's a 150% swing so he was almost at the cap right away. And once he went past the cap he just went wild pushing every preflop (after all he couldnt lose anymore).

To anyone who is subscribed to this thread: Please consider posting in this subforum again. No matter what else you think of it, it makes more sense than trying to convince Joe Tall that HU isn't the devil.

Bump / brag: I've played 26 sessions >10 hands 3-6+ HUHU (very part time) in the last few days. Could give up other games at this rate

Nice one.
That one of all reasons why Stars is largest and most played poker room on world.
Surprised that Stars is more expensive for higher limits then other ones O.o Was thinking that Stars have lowest rake on all limits and games. But whatever really for me, i am far from high limits right now .

From my experience sng's is much better from rake look. Especially in micro/low limits where rake effect most.

If you are referring to HU play (I am assuming so since this is a HULHE forum), this is because Stars does not run hu tables above 10/20. The data he took are from hu games at a 6max table at 15/30 and above. The other two sites have dedicated headsup tables, or at least Merge did.
