Hi, been off for husng's for about a year now. I see now trend seems to check back more (readless and so on). Is this checkingback strategy more profitable than cbtting/limpcbtting in general?

If it wasn't more profitable people wouldn't do it. People haven't stopped cbetting, they just don't do it 100% any more.

Is it a good adjustment to widen preflop shove raising ranges 20-25bb deep significantly if you believe villain is opening to wide or folding too much when you factor in rake (1,5%-2% after rakeback)?

Is it true that shoving needs to have significantly higher chip EV than flatting to be preferred due to rake and opponent might quit(assuming big postflop edge)?

Not really, but if it's super close and you have a significant edge it's better to take the lower variance approach so you get more chances (hands) to get a 'better spot'. If there was even a 1cEV difference in shoving over flatting you take that line every time though.

ok this is beginners so...i only play on carbon. i started the huSNG's there a few days ago. (I should say im like pretty good HU cash and 6 max for last decade or so) the starting chips = 1500 there. i thought i might get into this game and watched some videos. apparently on Stars you get 500 chips. so the game i am playing is quite different in that its deeper or whatever, right? any advice on resources for the 1500 game?

hello. i am starting to use hyper turbos starting preflop range and i do have some questions about playing lines. for example what does that mean: "t45/flat nai 3b/call 3bs" ?
i have no idea what t45 means
flat nai 3b - flat call not all in 3bet?
call 3bs - ?

thank your for your answer. i am complete noob, but i cannot find anything regarding t45 (exept that some players when posting hand it says "preflop(t45)" but i have no idea what that means either

t45 means 45 tournament chips, so "raise to 45."

flat nai3b is indeed flatcalling villain's nai3b.

call 3bs is calling villain's 3b shove.

Hope this helps.

There are a number of purchasable video packs of varying quality and varying price.

Hi I've just started playing the $1.50 reg speed heads up sit n goes on stars. Prior to this I played about 200k hands mostly at 5nl zoom fr with a 3.5 bb/100 win rate.

I'm experiencing some pretty bad variance so far, got my chips in as a decent favorite close to 20 times in a row and lost.

Is this sort of thing standard here? Talking about situations like AK vs A6 etc

Also what are the bankroll requirements for this level?

Thanks

Tks. Any tips on transitioning from fr cash to heads up sng's?

I know it's a big change but any general advice would be much appreciated

Can anyone explain to me what is $EV in HM2.
Basically I only play HUSNG'S and I think that whenever I put my money in good and the villain sucks out on me this $EV is green and when i suckout and win this is red.
Any pice of advice???
I also want to say sorry in advance if this post is not allowed to be posted here!

Hi guys,

Say I have bottom pair on a dry flop against an opponent who is consistently betting into me with air.

I'm ahead but my hand is vulnerable to over cards and can't stand too much pressure on later streets.

Calling is difficult but raising here just feels like folding out worse.

Very confused in these spots, any advice much appreciated.
