Really getting into heads up and wanna make that my main game.

1. Is there good heads up strat videos out there, if so, where?

2. Playing heads up I really see different playing styles, and adjusting to those can sometimes be tricky. For example the maniac 97/86/56, dream opponent for me, can be high variance, but lots of money to be made. But the style that tilts me the most is the super passive, limps every button, checks back a tonne of flops, but also a bit of a station, these players bore the crap out of me, and I end up playing a super passive style as I get bored, yet I know theres money to be made here. How do we play against this type?

3. Playing OOP, any good articles for what to defend OOP?

4. Calling 3b IP, how wide? against diff Opp I'm assuming our ranges will wildy differ and how easy they stack off

There are some in RIO, but all of them are mid-high videos afaik. Still helps to get insight into the general thought process.

About stats,
I think this is player dependant really, not like FR or w/e where there are "good stats". In vacuum I just open 99%, defend like 75%, 3bet nuts and solid rundows, until I start figuring out what's going on and then changing gears.

The game is HU so what is the difference? Isn't it better to learn from higher stakes players 5-10 10-20 and use that skill vs lower stakes PLO50 and onwards?

Not sure, it's just the impression I have, might be wrong.
I mean that I have got more help from players who play the same limit. (or watch same limit vids)
Same thing was when I played NL, I had a coach who was crushing 50 & 100NL and I had a coach who crushed midstakes. I got more help from the 1st guy being that it was hes everyday bread and butter.

e: I might be completely off, this is just my personal experience.
Of course it makes more sense to get coached by a player who crushes higher.

Based on zero experience, but getting coached by someone who has experience with the levels you play is probs the way to go

Quite hard to afford still. The advices are going to be pretty awesome I am sure but for someone playing less than 2/4 it's quite expensive.
