Hi all,

What is the best strategy to use with weaks aces ITB in heads up situations vs a reg (assuming it is not possible to play profitable vs him) when effective stack is 8-12BB.

Nash table being non profitable to use when having more than 7BB.

Limp and call ?
Min raise and call ?
Shove ?

100% dependent on player tendancies but probably better to just OS them if you have 0 edge

Okay, what if villain shoves too many hands ? Better to limp / min raise - call or shove them ? knowing that when Hero calls villain's shoe, most of the time it'll be a 60-40 55-45 ?

If you're asking these questions, you should probably just jam.

Honestly I'de have given myself the same answer. Simplest choice for someone who doesn't what to do.

I'm trying now min raise and adjust the call / fold pre depending on the player. I don't like just jam because it removes all the thinking out of the game and it removes any chance for improvement in my game. The difficulty in this is that I have to remember each guy as I usually play on my phone and I have no tracker and no notes on the players...

Struggling and am barely even in my new limit (50e spin&go on winamax) (my only win is RB).

Any advice on how to better my game ?

The work I do now is, watch videos (on other format that S&G as there isn't much available on this subject except for the 5-10$ limits), read posts on the forum (again on other formats for the same reasons) and make some reviews of the games played.

sometimes the simplest option is best option, don't over complicate things

"Nash table being non profitable to use when having more than 7BB."

That's your answer. Nash is not optimal at 12BB, but it will never be a huge mistake.

Well, it depends what the mistakes are otherwise. OP is clearly acknowledging that they are trying to minimise losses, rather than maximising wins....
