I sat down at a couple of the 50nl games because I really enjoy HU even if I'm not very good at it. But even at microstakes people wouldn't sit with anyone who had a brain. I mean I know this is just exactly what is going on in FR, 6max, PLO etc but in FR or 6max for one thing you get the SNE chasers who don't table select and will sit down for ever and just play with all regs and another you probably get a higher % of fish.
Something needs to be done with the HU games though, those same 100/200 regs that had a bunch of leaks wouldn't play you now, obv it's far more profitable short term to sit down at a bunch of different stakes and wait for a brainless idiot to come around every once in a while than it is to try and work on the leaks and move up even if long term it makes little sense and it's bad for the general state of the games.

I used to be a HU cash player but I had to stop because there just isn't any action anymore. You go through all the tables and everyone is sitting out, or if you do find a table that someone is sitting in, as soon as you join they insta-sitout and PTR you, or steal the button and leave.
Then if I sit at a table, the only action I get is some short-stacking hit&run donk. It's not like I'm some HU prodigy or anything, but all the regs these days will only play the absolute droolers. I mean, most won't even play slight losers - it's just ridiculous.
The only 2 forms of poker I ever used to play was HU cash and Rush (with the odd touney mixed in every now and then), and now they're both gone, along with my roll
