hello to the forum newbie here.

i have some questions if someone can help me.

i play mostly 2/4 and 3/6

1) how do u adjust to a player opening 90% of hands HU?
i got crushed by one guy that was hyper aggro the "always pat" type.

2) i know that 4:1 odds are not good for drawing to an 87 but what about 2346 for example which can make a straight?

3) how do u keep your calm with this game? i mean really, you go to a table and sometimes its all cool. other times you loose 60 bb in 30 mins, how do u guyz cope with this tilt?

4) i have some trouble preflop. say a loose guy opens from BTN and i hold 2678 in the BB and i 3bet. then it gets capped. is it right to change my mind and draw 2?
also preflop: it goes bet/raise and i am in the BB holding 236 is that an auto call?

thank you

also something else

5) is there any point in a ring game to raise 3cds 225AA for example with a BB that is a bad player but never folds? like in my HUD he folds to a steal 10% of the time! the blind stealing aspect of this hand is gone (but bad player) so whats worth more?

1) defend more, 3-bet pre more (exact ranges I probably can't pinpoint...I play little HU.

2) If the guy is already pat before the turn, I would strongly consider folding OOP for the turn bet. In position, I hope for implied odds to cover me and peel off.

3) I didn't really...tilt was a big issue of mine personally...haha

4) Yes, convert to draw 2 usually. I would consider folding 236 in the BB unless raiser and 3-bettor are bad/loose.

5) I think this is close, but vs. a BB w/o fold equity, I don't hate a fold if you are SB. If you're BTN, raise all day.

for 1) i thought about 3betting pre but ballance? i can't 3bet 467 but i certainly can call a raise with it i think if he opens 90%
should i call more marginal hands or just start to open 90% myself and play oop as usual

note: i have played with vman96 in the past at 1/2 stakes around jan/feb '11.
i remember your nickname cause i have marked you as a good player but not only for that, we had a pot like 17bb biggest ever 4 or 5way and you were pat and i bet river with A into you and 3 others remaining and you just folded and it felt so damn good lol by first "ballz" bluff in this game :P
