enjoyed it as im currently trying to bring my 6max game upto speed rather than just playing hu...cant wait for the next one!
Hey Aaron,
Great vid as usual.
For someone looking to add some HU play to their repertoire but who isn't as advanced as Johnny at 6 max, would you recommend playing one table of HU along with maybe two 6 max tables as per this vid or would you recommend maybe just playing one HU table on its own to get accustomed to it?

i would start with just 1 hu table and play 1 table until you can't stand it anymore. Then maybe add in 1 table of 6m and 1 of hu and mostly autopilot the 6m while still focusing on the hu. Keep building from there.

here you say that the frequency of opponent a) flopping big, b) fast playing the flop and then c) slow playing the turn isn't very high, so it seems like you advocate a bet/call if opponent check/raises turn. But at the end of the discussion on this hand you said we'd bet/fold the turn. Can you clarify?

ya good point, I should have explained that better... so when the turn rolls off there and we bet 1/3 pot, we basically need to ask ourselves how spewy/balance conscious the opponent is. The more balance conscious/tougher reg/better hand reader he is (and thinks we are), the more inclined we should probably be to bet/fold. The more of a "bad reg" he is or the more spewy we've seen him in the past, then we need to bet/call the turn. I'm not sure what johnny's read is on this guy, so I shouldn't have said we would have for sure bet/folded the turn. If I don't know the guy and have no read, i would probably bet/call the turn for the reasons stated earlier about how far we can discount big hands from preflop, flop, and turn actions.
If I bet a more normal amount on the turn, I think bet/fold is a bit more reasonable.

When Im playing against regs I only play 1 table HU. I also play some HU when a 6max table breaks but I then reduce the amount of 6 max tables I play and try to avoid playing higher or tougher tables.
This video is actually recordings from two different sessions.

If we just bet 1/3 pot on the turn, it's awakward for us to get stacks in if we wanted to. Isn't there a danger opponent recognises this and would presume we'd fire bigger with a stronger made hand and that a 1/3 psb on turn here would be indicative of a marginal made hand?

if both players have hands where stacks can go in, they will go in.
you make a reasonable point though that villain might mis-read this fact in game
Also, its not like villain can play that well against us if we do want to overbet the river. I dont think it's clearly value or clearly bluff. His hand will be fairly face up as badly played Kx or some thin value on the flop.

left table - KJo
is this really a fold preflop?
great vid. I think the format is really interesting for all players, especially if you are trying to start tables where you have to play some HU at least

against a loose guy whom you are comfortable playing oop, i dont mind defending here.
