Hi!

I usually only play PLO 6max and some HU those days but I come from a NLHE HU/6max background. One of the better HU PLO regulars at OnGame and I have a challenge at 25/50 limit O8. He said that he played about 500 hands in total of the game and I think I played about the same amount. I have seen all mikes videos at PS+ also most of Joe Talls DC videos but all of then are for 6max+. I started of dropping 2k to him last night but was playing PLO on the side and he was running well too but I looking to improve before my next game.

I have seen Gus and DB played some over at full tilt and it seems the games does play fairly lose.

What hands do you raises/calls/fold from the button and with what kind of hands?
(I raised 86% called 11% fold 3% over the 150 hands I played yesterday)

Also what hands do we fold/call/3bet from BB?
(Fold 35% called 43% 3bet 22% was my stats yesterday)

Can anyone link me some good HU O8 articles/videos I'm more then happy or comment on preflop play. I might also be interested in a good HU O8 coach.

Any comments are welcome

Those stats are reasonable. I would advise to play tight from tbe big blind like u did. As for what to raise and what to fold/limp, the important thing is to get your opponent to make mistakes and it's not like holdem where their are very clear raise/fold rules. The hands run close together so it doesn't matter as much.

Having played both Gus and David, I think Gus plays reallly loose (obv) and benyamine plays great, more solid. they both bring a lot of heat postflop.

vs most people i think raising 86% of your hands on the button is too many.

is the player kiddea by any chance? i used to play him at 25 50 o8 hu and he was super aggressive. but come to think of it he was a limit hu specialist so probably isn't him lol. i used to play a lot of the 5 -5 and 5 10 plo games tho too, only regs i can remember are bongo head, mr torres, sak31, and unibomber. any of them still around?

oh and sorry no advice to offer, cuz i suck at limit hu
