HUHU NC/LC Thread for March - Page 22 - Heads Up Poker

Hey guys. Few Qs.

With how much BBs are you waiting at the tables?
Do you think it matters to bad players, if they see someone sitting with 1000$ or 200$?
How about nice "round" number instead of odd number? Like 200$ vs 236,5$?

I know these questions seems funny, but still. What do you think?

JR, do you think DC would want some more awesome HUHU content or did you have to sign a no compete clause with Stox?

Yeah tournaments are pretty unbeatable with rake/travel expenses/ associated leaks (the pit, strip clubs, blow, whatever)

Plus the rope they need to buy so they can hang themselves in their hotel rooms. Wow I cannot think of a more miserable existence than live tournament pro.

i've been finding this to be the case the last few days as well since i started sitting at 10/20 again...

having 7 tables open over various sites/limits seems to get me insta sat almost always.

Playing online HU on new apple iPad while sitting in a juice live game....

Doable?

How many casinos do you think might allow this?

Yeah you can definitely do it with the remote desktop app. I mean you can do it with an iphone so I assume you can do it with the ipad, they should have the same app, right? It's going to be sick when poker sites start rolling out apps designed specifically for smartphones. Siiiiiiiick. And huhu is the perfect format for that sort of thing.

It would be sooooo sweet if the casinos allowed it and the interface was playable. It would almost make the slowness of the live games tolerable again.

That would be so awesome even though PS told me no current apps atm, I play live all the time because i'm teaching one of my siblings how to play so a HU game on a phone would be sweet :P

hmm i think he had the right idea, but he needs to fold on that specific river. but calling down unimped on a brick river looks fine
