no ... imho ... dogisheadup is ok better - foxwoodfiend and jk3a is good too, and gman's hugrinder series is ok, that deals w beating regs ... and WOT is still a bad ass. AEjones and Lchewey are entertaining on Leggo ... but ....
CR is the best place for vids imho ... for beginners at least. MLJ and CPAR1 are the dudes to watch and the know all end all imo. I loved CPAR's first vid.
Actually tbh - I just like finding the winning regs and I just watch their sessions on PTR. Be sure when you watch vids that you "grunch" them. Pause them on each street b4 the author makes the play and come up with your own play. If it's different, I investigate why I got it "wrong" or why they played it differently.
But be really careful when watching vids. Fancy play isn't how you beat fish and vids can really screw up your game in HU. just take em w a grain and youre watching them to get "thought processes"... just a word of caution.
I don't know of any books but any recent NL book is good. I've been enjoying Ed's SSNLHE book personally. Baluga's book is great ... again ... Just so you know take it w/ a grain.
I think this is acceptable. If we're playing deep and all of a sudden they have 20-10bb then yah the rake wins the war (at 50nl at least). I don't play <40bb stacks. there's nothing more tilting than fighting for a stupid twenty bucks after the dude has doubled off of you three times lol!
It's a tough call but if someone is 3b a lot start min raising - mb even limping if they're out of control. You just don't wanna get in a situation where you're in this big ass pot not knowing where you're at. I would suggest 4b'ing some junk hands just to see what they do. The prob w 4bing hands like con-bwys is that they're committing and you want to play on. If you have hand like 93o and you 4b and he ships - well easy fold right? Where as if you have like KJ then it becomes more of a tough call where you're wawb. My suggestion is if you're not comfortable playing agro players then don't play them... Just stick to the weak passive fish for now until you become better at handling these players.
well ip it's 75ish and 30ish (+3b) oop... here are my b-flat guidelines:
or ip (+/- on the borders):
cc'ing oop:
and then oc I'm 3b'ing usually everything in the upper LH corner of this ^^^ that isn't yellow...
now keep in mind that I play fish. And my strat is really just to keep it simple. I adjust these ranges oc to how passive or agro they are - what they're calling me with and how often they cc oop. as you stated it's just a "starting" easy does it guidline... no more - but hope it helps no less...
the best thing is figuring out what they're raising ranges and cc'ing ranges are pf. A basic vpip bb for example isn't going to help you... I want to see what they're 3b'ing w and what they're calling with... mainly what they're calling with. this helps me in determining what boards to cbet on and not. that's just a mere starting point though. It helps if you're going to do this to break up your pf stats rather than having just a basic vpip and pfr for everything which i find not very helpful.

Im just getting into playing HU cash after playing HUsng for quite some time.
What is a standard range pf open-raise in position? It seems quite a bit tighter than sngs..
What is a standard range for pf calling oop? and what about 3-betting range?
Also what is the standard size for 4-bets?
I obv. know that this is very based villian and dynamic etc., so im looking for standard ranges..
