Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Book - Collin Moshman

This is a recomended book for a begginer?

I'm also see almost all of this videos. Is that enough to start winning at low stakes?
I have $10 at William Hill and I pretend to start winning some money playing SnG's at the lowest buy-in's.

it seems like you read this, however you it seems like you missed the part about intend/pretend, and also about $10 being too little. $10 is not a bankroll. You need at least 30-40 buy-ins for the game you are playing, sometimes much more. i don't know what stakes sngs ipoker offers, but unless they are like 30cents, you're going to need to get lucky not to go bust, EVEN if you're a winner in the games long-term, as variance is going to bust you many times if you only have 10 buy-ins or so.

since you are set on playing sngs, there is a heads up sng forum, this is the hu cash games forum. here is the sng forum:

and just because you watched cardrunners videos, doesn't mean anything at all. just because you watched them, doesn't mean you are a winning player or will win. there is also a training site better for hu sngs:

I'm playing at William Hill at the lowest HU stakes. For now i'm winnig, at this stakes the opponents are dunck's. I'm trying to do a nice Bankroll to start SnG's.

Whats your opinion on sample size before assuming you're a winning player if you're 95% bumhunting? My graph this far is pretty swingy so it's tough to say if I'm just a donk on a heater or if I'm playing decent.

If you are just bumhunting and you are not sure whether or not you are better than the players you play, then something is obviously wrong.

well im sure I've had an edge against every player Ive played this far. not sure how big tho.

lets rephrase the question. how big sample before getting an idea about your winrate?
more or less hands than 6 max?

Well its tough to estimate, because your winrate is going to be changing from player to player... maybe just play with the variance simulator a bit. As a starting point I'd say ~20k hands running at 10bb/100 should tell you whether or not you are a winning player

does anyone have a decent free HUD for HUNL on HM1?

How many buy ins should I have to be comfortably rolled at Nl50 (20bb cap) and by bi's I mean full 50bb not the cap.

Around 30 ish?

Are there still whales left in high-stakes HUNL online? Do you ever play a complete donk in these stakes? Is there a big difference between the level of play at .25/.50 compared to .5/1?

No to all

well maybe once in a blue moon there is a complete donk playing higher than NL200

how many buy ins do you guys want to have in your br for the next limit before moving up? and how many buy ins do you have to lose in your shot before moving down?

Hi, I'm a HUSNG player thinking of trying out HU cash with some newbie questions.

I had a look on stars and even at NL50, the lowest stakes, there were as many people (presumably mostly regs) opensitting as there were games running. NL100 had significantly more people opensitting than games running. How long do you expect to opensit before getting a game going? How many fish are there? Is it viable for a good NL50/NL100 player to beat weak regs for a decent hourly? Is fulltilt or pokerstars (or some other site) better?

just look at the ratio of games running at a given stake and u'll get a good idea how fast they're likely to fill. 50nl on stars seems to have a lot of action from the looks of it. it decreases as u go up. stars>ftp action wise.

as far as regs go, its always a battle with the rake the lower u go. but idk if theyre weak enough im sure u could beat the rake

Here's a simple and quick (and noob) question.

What is the pot odds % figure in HEM replayer supposed to be?
Here we got flop action, villain bets 3 into a 5$ pot on the flop.
So the pot is 8, and it costs me 3 to call.

Pot odds are 8 to 3, or 2,67 to 1.
Pot odds% is listed as 27%. (1 divided with 3,67).


I am risking 3 to win 8. If I divide 3 with 8 I get 0,375 (37,5%).
Shouldn't I need 37,5% equity to call there?
To get 27% it must compute as "risking 3 to win 11".. but why?

So if villain bets 100 into 1, am I risking 100 to win 101 (by your logic i need to be good 100/101 -> 99%) or do I need 100/201 -> 49%?

Thank you.
That example ilustrates it perfectly.

This whole "but I'm risking 3 to win 8 that's there" kept getting me sidetracked.

im glad i helped, i usually really suck at explaining thing

what is the approximate the optimal bb calling%, folding%, and 3bet% vs a minbet?

defend: 50-80+%
3-bet: 12.5-20+%

the rake and how comfortable you are postflop are significant factors

Whats the bb/100 rake on ipoker 20,50,100NL?

I've been raking about 16bb/100 at 50nl on ipoker and 20.5bb/100 at 20nl

not very big sample

Hey i have a question

My bankroll is 600$ right now, Before I played at Nl16 SH, but recently I fell in love with HU (cash).

I want to play HU cash but i read everywhere "cash lower than NL50 is unbeatable" its rly true? HUSNG reg/turbo is better for low limits? I mean, is HUSNG build my BR easier and faster than NL4-20 HU cash??
And other question if i decide to play HUSNG, will it help me later in cash games HU.

HU SNG will definitely be easier to build a BR with. Variance isn't as brutal, rake isn't as brutal - you just want to be careful not to play any SNG's with more than 5% rake.

I think micro HU cash is beatable because basically everyone you play is terrible, as dumb as it sounds bumhunting is even more necessary because you don't want to get into long blind wars with a nitty reg when the rake is that absurd.
