Do you guys usually use HUDS in the game? Seems like one game might not be long enough to have a hud actually be helpful, but I guess if you played against the same opponent many many times, it would end up being very use full to use a hud eventually.


Thoughts?

i believe u don't need hud, unless u multitable
if u play with him many games, you should have some notes, which are more useful than hud

If you dont overuse the hud and dont misinterpret it it s definitly usefull, the problem is that most people fall into the first 2 problems while using one

Huds are notes, but automatic. Obviously some information is better displayed through written text, while others are more easily accessed by storing as numbers. Use both, and learn to use them correctly, as Eddy said.

Haven't found anything new, so I ask here:
Are there any plans, that Stars is changing the Lobby to one with more than one active Lobby per Limit?

what is a decent ROI for the fulltilt husng turbo?

Hey guys this was very early on in a match vs unknown opponent. Villain limped 100% OTB so far so I guessed he was pretty bad. Limpers do my head in so attacked with suited queen although a lot of the time against limpers im just calling. In hind sight I don't really like my check raise after the flop. I usually play the 5s where I would probably check/call or check/fold depending but I guess I like to take it easy and mix it up a bit on the 2's. Top pair flush draw i'm calling all day but in general without any reads is bottom pair flush draw a snap fold 75bb deep?

Would just like to clear this up for next time. Replys appreciated cheers.

most pointless concern ever,if you have a good ROI you shouldnt ever reach the sample size needed to be sure it s your true ROI since you are supposed to move up in stakes way before that point, some specific stakes have decent data since people tend to spend way more time in those as moving up become much harder but still not very usefull info since that will depends alot on who you play aswell

Hi,
I'm new to HUSNG's and I have some questions, hopefully i get the answer from here...

Against what kind of opponent I should take passive approach PF and limp/check rather than raise OOP and IP?(most of the time I think that I have a post-plop edge over him)

if your opponent is spewing all over the place and will valuebet himself for you, so any insanely aggressive opponent

Been like this all day, and for example earlier when i had K10s vs K8o AIPF and won, same there.

the question shows a clear misunderstanding of the concepts involved. nash is an equilibrium strategy, whereas chubukov is an unexploitable shoving-strategy for hands in the vacuum. you should probably go back and study both concepts again.

i suggest rereading this thread by spamz: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/18...ubukov-560408/

It's likely that you wanna use one system against a certain opponent, and another system against another opponent, especially at the lowest stakes. also, nash is not a panacea. without adjustments, shoving nash is okay, calling nash is horrible.

Why is it not working? You won, so obviously you ran over EV? What was the buyin?
**** Beginner's and Low Content Questions Thread**** Quote
01-25-2011 , 07:04 PM
$50 buyin maybe? equity on that is about a 60% ish

so, opponent had 40%, but you won it all, so you're about $20 over EV. Roughly.
**** Beginner's and Low Content Questions Thread**** Quote
01-25-2011 , 08:15 PM
$30 Buyin

I think i understand now thanks, sick though since im up like $270 today and my ev says im like +-0 or something (cant check right now) which i find quite weird lol

Even if you get all in as a favorite, winning still means you're running above expectation.

You won 100% of the pot, but your expectation was 60%.
**** Beginner's and Low Content Questions Thread**** Quote
01-26-2011 , 06:54 AM
hmm, maybe I don't understand now. If buyin was $30, and you are $20 over EV, then that meant you only had equity of $10 in that pot, meaning opponent was the favourite? (which he wasn't).

If the stack sizes weren't so close I'd guess it had something to do with that, but you're practically even...

so, dunno

Hey, I just wondered if teaming in the 4 player HUsngs is allowed on Fulltilt? I know its not on stars, but I see alot of ppl doing it on fulltilt so wondering if its legal

Are superturbo sng's stiil beatable if you dont have the 27% rakeback deal? I just love them and since i cant get any rakeback deal i was wondering if you can still beat them ( i 1table ST and play 11-33 if its makes any difference)

Also how much %% RB are you getting with al the other FTP promotions? Or just buying cash bonus (found one for stars, but couldnt find one for FTP)

Apparently teaming 4mans is (partly) allowed again on stars fwiw, as long as one follow
"All players are obliged to play out their HU matches, except for the final of any event, in a normal way without 'flipping', regardless of who their opponent is. Players are not permitted to engage in any form of prize-split or equity-sharing with any opponent in a tournament comprised of HU matches, except for their final opponent." - link

FTs support seems quite keen on giving contradicting answers to that question; some have been answered that it is permitted while others have not -- you might wanna contact them and ask for yourself
