What kind of strategy do you guys use when playing Heads Up?

[Zybomb]

You'd kill me

oh I forgot...you can't seem to beat ANY forum members HU

As for your last jab , after my dominating performance last league I figured I'd give some others a shot

The fact that I've only played in like 3 events thus far (since my work schedule has increased making me unavailable for a lot of these events) doesn't help matters though

Maybe later in the week we can get a nice HU match goin on Stars or somewhere

He definately has my number, thats for sure.

Yeah, I do ok. That little fluke came to an abrupt end when I rolled through our furst big HU tourney on Stars and then finished second in the next one.

I just needed to realize I was giving you guys way too much credit and had to dumb down my game a bit.

[lightfungus]

I guess thats funny.

I'm not much of a HU player. But I stop and go, stop and go. I also raise often preflop. If they are passive I always raise PF. 1 big leak I have is putting too much stake in 2nd pair heads up. later.

All this HU talk got me in the mood. I took a run at these last year and did pretty well with them (I never did finish my 100 match sample though - maybe I should do that now). Anyway, I played one for the first time in 5 months just now.

Here's how it ended... I feel like it should be OBVIOUS what I had, but I guess not. I can't BELIEVE he called this all in:

Make small/mid sized bluffs on the turn and river at the beginning. Then after you get caught once or twice, stop bluffing and start overbetting your made hands.
